I offer here a set with 6 freeformed /squeezed beads lovingly made by me in my studio in Bavaria. I used soft glass from Effetre, Reichenbach, ASK, handpulled murrinis, goldstone.

Both sides of the beads are decorated quite similar. See pictures, they show both sides.

2,6 - 3,1 cm (1.02″ - 1,22″) length, 2,0 - 2,4 cm (0.79″ - 0.94″) width and about 0,9 - 1 cm (0.35″ - 0.39″)thick, thinner to the ends.
Main colors: green, orange-red, ivory, dark red, black, gold (goldstone).

Photographies were taken by daylight and are enlarged to show details. Colors may slightly differ depending on your screen.

My beads are, of course, properly cleaned and annealed in a digitally controlled kiln to ensure strength and durability.

CALYPSO'S BEADS:

“Ulysses’ breath came to a halt as soon as he saw her. She wore a loose shimmering raiment and bright curls floated down her shoulders splendorously gleaming by the glow of the fire.
‘She must be a goddess!’ thought he. ‘No mortal being can be as beautiful as she is!’ And he was right: Her name was Calypso, daughter of Atlas.”
(Quotation Odyssey)

Who knows, perhaps Calypso was wearing beads of colored glass? …
