<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 611179, member: 5398"]Can anyone tell me if millefiori is the correct term for these glass beads? They look different that other millefiori beads I've seen online. Are they vintage Italian/Venetian or new beads from China? I'm getting kind of suspicious about glass beads now that so many beautiful new beads are available online and in stores. The clasp looks 1950s-60s, but it isn't signed. The beads are hand-knotted with blue and white thread, so the knots are inconspicuous. The strands are all the same length, so they don't lay flat when worn. Any help/opinions would be appreciated.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]179667[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179668[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179669[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]179670[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
