As an antique beaded purse restorer, I have been buying and selling vintage and antique micro seed beads for over thirty years. I recently bought the last remaining stock of handmade Italian seed beads from Murano, Italy. They are over 100 years old, in tiny sizes from 22/0 to 10/0. I also offer a smaller quantity of antique Czech beads, and the occasional French beads, too.
If you are new to old tiny micro seed beads, these will give you more resolution and fine detail in your work, and some of the oldest colors, like true Cheyenne pink, are no longer made. "Greasy" or waxy finish, is not an applied finish but describes the ability of light to pass through the bead--similar to polished jade, it looks like it glows from within.
You can purchase multiple beads from me for only one low shipping cost of $3.75 US or $15 international. Please add all of your items to your cart BEFORE you hit "check out" so that you only get charged one low cost for shipping. If the system overcharges you please contact me and I will send you an offer or make an adjustment.
