Bead Furnace Design - 2011


« large pic »
Opaque (183) forget-me-not blue (215) beads exist in a range of types. The slightly larger size at over 13mm (165) is less common while the shape of a rounded top and straight sides (124) and proportions of a little shorter than it is across (152) are very common. The simple eyes or dots (321) that are regularly spaced (301) around the bead are a common decorative element although none are found on the relatively few beads of this base colour. Type B428 has the same shape and elements.
