Venetian "Florals" and "Ambassador" Bead Singles

Beautiful examples of these popular, but nowadays very difficult to find, Venetian beads ... produced in Venice between the 1800s and early 1900s, the Ambassadors are also known as "Lewis and Clark" beads .. despite being a misnomer, as they were made long after Lewis and Clark's famed voyages of discovery in America, they remain unique and very collectible. All are in very good condition, unless marked otherwise.
