Eye beads

Information
Made by:

Eye beads -- beads with dots of concentric circles -- are the oldest and most common decorative motif. These beads are glass, made using wound glass (lampwork) methods. The blue beads with a white stripe at the equator are a Roman-era pattern. The yellow beads are from a necklace of Iranian beads, dating from 600-900 c.e. The blue beads with the dots alternating 2/1 are a pattern of my own devising.

Era: Roman, Iranian (600-900),
