History, Value & Craftsmanship
These tiny drawn glass beads, also known as Venetian seed beads, Conteria beads, old Venetian drawn beads were produced in Venice during the early to mid‑1900s for the African trade. Their value lies in authenticity, age, and vibrant color. Crafted by stretching molten glass into long tubes, cutting into minute segments, and polishing, each bead reflects centuries‑old Venetian glass‑making traditions. These beads not only carry historical significance but are also sought after by collectors and artisans worldwide.
