Chamilia's Analisa Glass Beads are made from genuine Italian Murano glass. Glass beads are a fascinating, beautiful creation. They have functioned as currency, gifts, works of art, and symbols of high status. They are recorded as being created, traded, and worn as jewelry by the earliest civilized societies, from Egyptians to Romans, Vikings to Indians. There are nearly as many types of glass beads as there are colors in the spectrum. With all that we have to offer you're sure to find something you love for yourself or for someone special!
