Nominated for Feature by Justin on 1/25/2011

The body of this bead is an opaque white glass wrapped in gold leaf. Multiple swirls of Rubino glass are then added. The final touch is 4 gentle pulls through the soft glass in alternating directions, creating a uniquely beautiful bead. (La Tira in Italian translates as The Pull)

Glass colors: Standard White & Transparent Gold Pink (Rubino)
