Cloisonné Bead Rectangle 46x36mm and 19x15mm 3-piece set

Cloisonné is a centuries-old technique that requires skilled artisans to arrange dozens of tiny cells on a copper surface, and layer by layer, fill in the cells with durable colored enamel, then fire to finish. Gold-finished edges are a beautiful contrast to the bright artwork found on each double-sided bead. Packages include one large bead and two small beads--the larger beads make striking focal pieces in necklaces and the smaller beads are great as matching earring components.
