VINTAGE JAPANESE GIVRE Glass BEAD BLUE 14.5mm pkg 1 1960 GL625

Description

Stunning Japanese vintage dark blue givre glass bead with white swirls inside as you can see in the photographs.

(No two beads are alike so I've taken a couple of photos of more than one bead to show the variation but this listing is for ONE bead ).

Price is for 1 of these beads which measures approximately 14.5mm x 11mm and which we 100% guarantee to be vintage Japanese glass from the 1960's.

This makes a stunning focal bead for any necklace - the glass is beautifully transparent and a deep lapis blue color - each bead is in excellent shape.

I sold many such vintage Japanese givre glass beads through the Smithsonian Institution's museum shop and mail order catalog during the 1980's and they were also featured in trunk shows at Bloomingdales and Saks Fifth Avenue during this same time period.

You'll never see beads like this nowadays at your neighborhood "gem show"!
