Daisuke is one of Japan's most mind-blowing glass artists, as he creates stunning murrine and millie and then works them all together into crazy intricate designs that are hard to even comprehend. This is a VEEEERY special bead, one which was featured on page 100 of the Japanese book called "100 Lampworkers" that was published in Japan back in 2006, highlighting the best of the best from their country full of miniature glass artisans. This one is rare and crazy special, if you want the best of the best, act fast! There is one of his goldfish on each side, along with perfectly placed air bubbles, flowers, and a raised set of clear rings by each fish signifying ripples on the water. The detail is MIND BLOWING and so incredibly nice. I will be kicking myself for letting go of this one for sure....
