This Venetian cube bead has a transparent exterior that surrounds its opaque white center. Use these Venetian beads as focal points on necklaces or simple earrings, or string them together for a beautiful effect. Venetian glass beads are made by holding glass rods over a flame, then gently working the molten glass over the mandrels. Our cubes are made by lampworking Venetian glass into a round bead, then gently flattening each side. Due to the handmade nature of these beads, there might be rough edges around the bead holes, created where the glass connects to the mandrel. Simple use a
Bead Reamer to remove these sharp edges and smooth the inside of the bead. Feel free to browse for other
Venetian glass beads.
