Czech Glass Anemone Flower Beads: Black Picasso with Gold Wash (14mm, Set of 6)

These are six 14mm pressed Czech glass anemone flower beads in a rich black Picasso finish with a warm gold wash over the top. The Picasso treatment gives each petal a slightly dusty, earthy quality, and the gold wash adds just enough warmth to stop the black feeling flat. No two beads will look quite identical, which is part of what makes this finish so lovely to work with.

They sit beautifully as feature beads in a pair of earrings, or you could dot them through a bracelet alongside some smaller seed beads or rondelles to let the floral shape really stand out. They suit a bohemian or vintage-inspired palette especially well, pairing nicely with amber, bronze, deep teal or terracotta tones.

The beads are handmade by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic, so there may be tiny variations between individual beads. That is entirely normal and adds to the character of pressed glass.
