A Japanese peeking bead, forerunner to the window beads later produced. These foil beads are quite rare as they gave way in later years to full window beads which, if
you look throughout this catalog, you will find in many variations. Window beads are easier to find than this antique "peek-a-boo" bead, you will be hard pressed to
find these as not many have survived. These are 9mm more or less, handmade, opaque BLACK color with red and yellow foils peeking out. Unusual to find two colors of
foil in a single bead. Sold in lots of 2 for $16 per lot. BD-VN-1285D.

Classic wuffin beads from Japan, 1950. In that classic wuffin shape these beads measure about 10x12mm, the frontal wuffin is at the front, whilst the rear wuffin is
in the rear. As all wuffin beads are, these were originally made of milk glass which was then wufferized into the composite that we see here. A pale subtle blue. Wuffin
beads have been known to get up and wuff unexpectedly, so bear that in mind when using them. Sold in lots of 12 for $15. Order Item #BD-VN1803.
