Product Description

West German vintage glass opalite orange pebble beads!

Theyre an almost nugget shaped pebble bead -otherwise known as pebble beads that are a satin finish in peach/orange with a white glass that has a slight opalite finish to them as well.

You can see that there is a wonderful and almost whimsical circular design that has been etched on them that reminds me of craters on the moon!

These beads are an iridescent peach/orange bead and a focal bead if there ever was one!

**** If you love this bead, please check out my item no GL-289 which is a similar bead only in greens and turquoise colors and also under the vintage glass section of my shop!***

Price is for 2 of these amazing beads which each measure

approximately 13mm x12x6mm and we 100% guarantee them to be vintage West German satin pebble glass from the 1950s. I only have a handful left in my studio.

I sold many of these West German pebble glass beads through the Smithsonian Institutions museum shop and mail order catalog during the 1980s and they were also featured in trunk shows at Bloomingdales and Saks Fifth Avenue during this same time period.

Youll never see beads like this nowadays at your neighborhood gem show!
