SKU: 12EP283R

These are vintage French 12/0 seed beads in a transparent medium green — genuine old-stock glass from Eclats De Perles, offered in a 50-gram bag for makers who want something with a little history behind it.

The transparent finish lets light pass cleanly through the glass, giving the medium green a glassy, luminous depth — neither flat nor flashy, just honest color.

What to make with them

At 1.8–2.0 mm, 12/0s are well suited to fine bead weaving, loom work, and detailed embroidery where a smaller bead reads with more precision; the earthy green tone works especially well in nature-inspired needlework, botanical embroidery, and woven pieces that call for an organic, muted palette.

Description

Vintage frnch transparent medium green 12/0 50 gram bag. These vintage Venetian seed beads were crafted between the late 1800s and early 1920s, a testament to the extraordinary skill of Murano glass artisans working under Societa Veneziana Conterieconsortium of sixteen independent beadmakers united in 1898. Each bead carries over a century of history, made from glass canes that often predate the consortium itself. Because every batch was handmade, subtle differences in shape, size, and color are to be expected and celebrated. Most strands have long since given way to time, so a few broken bits of string may be found among these authentic treasures.
