This is a lampworked shell bead of soft glass with a Paladium Leaf applied to the surface,giving it an antique look. It is 1 1/4 x 1 1/8" and is hollow, as natural shells are.
It would be a perfect focal point of a necklace, or could be used as a pendant on its own.
While I have tried to capture the colors as accurately as possible, monitors will vary.
As with all my beads, it has been kiln annealed, but since it IS glass, and hollow as well, care should be taken in handling it.
