Laser Etched Coin Beads 17mm - Matte Blue Green, Steampunk Clock Design - Set of 2

These are two 17mm Czech glass coin beads in a really lovely matte blue-green, and what makes them stand out is the laser etched steampunk design. The front has a detailed clock face and the back features mechanical cogs, so there is something interesting on both sides. The etching is permanent and will not rub off with handling or wear, which is exactly what you want when you have put time into a piece.

At 17mm they are a good size for a focal or feature bead without being overwhelming. They would work beautifully as a pair of statement earrings, or you could use them as centrepiece beads in a bracelet or necklace. The matte finish gives them a soft, almost vintage quality that sits well with other earthy or metallic tones.

These are handmade by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic and are a fairly rare find in the UK, so they tend to appeal to anyone who likes their jewellery to have a bit of character.
