Recycled Glass 8mm

A strand of 74 translucent light orange Recycled Glass Beads strung on string 21″ long. These beads are size 2 (about 7 mm in diameter). The beads are unpolished and natural. The 5th and 6th photos show the two orange – light and dark. The last two photos show the difference in sizes of size 2 and size 3..  Photos don’t do these beads justice as they are translucent so it seems somehow the camera can’t quite catch them! They are handmade so colour, size and shape vary.

These recycled glass beads were purchased straight from the small factory which hand crafts them using the methods of their ancestors, from crushing recycled bottles all the way to firing them in a wood burning oven.
