12mm Millefiori Beads | Glass Beads | Jewelry Making Supplies | Craft Supplies
Millefiori translates from Italian as "a thousand flowers," and one look explains the name: each slice of this Venetian glass reveals a dense mosaic of tiny blossoms locked inside the material itself. Glassmakers build the effect by bundling colored rods, fusing them into a single cane, and cutting crosswise — every cut face a garden.

These beads measure 12mm across and roughly 3mm thick, a smooth flat round that shows the pattern on both faces. The 1mm hole suits beading wire and silk alike. Because the imagery is in the glass rather than on it, the color cannot peel, rub off, or dull with wear — what you see now is what the bead will look like in twenty years.
Use one as the focal point of a delicate chain necklace, line several up into a candy-bright bracelet, or hang a matched pair as earrings. The flat profile keeps them comfortable against the skin and stops them from rolling away on the work board. They sit equally well in vintage-leaning designs and modern color-block pieces.
A centuries-old Venetian technique, sized for everyday making.
