13 by 8 mm Ercole Moretti millefiori beads

Ercole Moretti is the Ferrari of Italian beads. The bead house started producing beads and other glass decorative objects in 1911 and they have been the standard bearer ever since. These colorful and joyful oval glass beads are vintage, probably from the 1950s or earlier. Each bead is a little different, it is best to order several. The hole will accommodate a .5 mm cord. 12 beads will make an 8 inch bracelet. They are sold by the piece. These beads are 100 percent hand-made so there is some variation in size.
