Nobuko Kawahara, "Concentric Cycles" Size: 0.87" Price: SOLD


This is a VERY special bead right here, as it was created by the queen mother of the dot stacking/masking technique that is so prevalent in bead and even marble creation today. She is the originator, and this is amazing bead history right here. As you can also see from the bead - she is GOOOOOD!! The glass control is just mesmerizing, and she created some fascinating patterns, from the concentric circles to the masked faces that you see. When an artist can repeat such precision over and over, you know they have FULL control of their medium, and this is the work of a master right here. This bead has been etched to give it that sweet matte finish. Don't miss your chance to add a bead from this legend to your collection!
