Questions About Antique Glass Bead
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Identifying an antique bead is a careful art. First inspect the bead for any seams that could indicate it was molded in a contemporary fashion. Antique beads tend to have a larger center hole. Inspect the bead for signs of natural age. An expert can help you confirm the approximate age of your bead. Shop a range of antique beads from top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024
    To tell if a beaded purse is an antique, first look at the frame. Antiques will usually have die-stamped frames, so you should be able to see the pattern on both sides of the metal. The frame is typically cast with newer bags, resulting in the pattern only being on one side. Next, examine the clasps. If your bag is antique, you should be able to detect a gap or seam where the maker soldered on the clasp, while a newer reproduction will frequently have a one-piece clasp and frame with no seams. Finally, look at the interior lining. Antique purses often have a ribbon sewn onto the seam where the lining meets the frame, but this detail will usually not be present on a reproduction. If you have doubts about your bag's age, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of beaded bags.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021
    Mercury glass, often known as "silvered glass," is an antique decorative art glass made by glassmakers in Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), England and America from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. These are blown glass artworks with hollow interiors, the majority of which are double-walled.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The easiest way to tell if a bead is glass or plastic is to feel it. Glass beads will be cooler to the touch, whereas plastic beads will be closer to room temperature and warm up quickly in your hands. Another test you can perform is to listen to the sound. Glass has a distinctive ring since it’s harder whereas plastic is softer and has a duller sound. Shop a range of vintage glass bead pieces on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 10, 2025
