I shouldn't have looked. Lord help us all. Here is another high priced sale of non-Venetian Venetians. $638. What are these beads???? ......122468558036
Very collectible. Some are Venetian. Our British members have published more info on BCN - search "lace bobbin" beads and "squiggle"beads
oh, OK, thanks. Actually made in Venice? They look very different.
I'll have to remember those in case they pop up during my searches. I sort of remember the previous discussion. When I saw them I wondered if they were boshan beads... oops... NOT. They look like some newer beads... it's the oblate shape... so I might not be able to differentiate.
I still can't get over the India made chevrons... oy, don't they know?
I wonder how long before the buyer realizes...
I own some of those... bought at a reasonable price and they're lovely. but, not $700 lovely. Sheesh!
