PINK PRISM BEAD

TGLBE-10359

Released 2005

This bead left the collection in 2007

Briefly re-released as a limited edition in 2011

The color in this prism is created from pure gold.

I bought this bead direct from Trollbeads Gallery in the US in 2011.

A box of these were found at Trollbeads HQ in 2011 and were made available for sale in the US as a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. It was wildly controversial at the time, Louise Rogers at Trollbeads Gallery in Mattapoisett, MA corresponded with Peter Aagaard whose response is copied below:

"Pink Prism is the real deal and from one of the original shipments. It is a type of glass which varies a lot (and why it was retired) – that is probably why it is different from other Pink Prism that they have seen. We found the beads unstamped when we moved – that is why the stamp is new – but the glass is old and I believe from one of the first shipments. Glass comes out different in different batches so one can be more translucent than another and also have variation in colors. The specific glass is not produced anymore so I can guarantee you that the beads are not new!"

I am selling off many of the glass beads from my extensive personal collection.

Colour Balance

The pictures are taken in a light box with an off white background.

The bracelet used is gold.

Any photo with a yellow toned bracelet is the most accurate representation of the bead’s colour.

All of my beads were bought to wear, although some of them may never have been on a bracelet.

I can’t guarantee that any of my beads are unused and may show signs of wear.

All the beads are classic small core and will only fit on Trollbeads style bracelets.
