Rare Banded Multimurrine Antique Venetian Millefiori Mosaic Glass Trade Beads
Discover the beauty and rarity of these five exquisite banded multimurrine antique Venetian millefiori mosaic glass trade beads. Made in Venice, Italy, and used in the African trade during the early 1900s, these beads are a true treasure for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
- Size: 12 mm x 10 mm
- Condition: Very good (lightly beveled and very lightly chipped at the ends, see photos)
The intricate technique of crafting these beads involves creating detailed patterns by fusing multiple layers of colored glass rods, then slicing them into cross-sectional pieces, revealing stunning mosaic designs. These beads hold historical significance in the African trade, particularly in Ghana, where they were highly valued and used as a form of currency and adornment.
