[Glass Craftsmanship] https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53159475658_e1d192f9c0_n.jpg Okinawa glass is a type of handmade glassware that originated in Japan in the 19th century. The technique for creating glass beads is called "torch pulling," where colored glass rods are heated in flames up to 1000 degrees Celsius until molten. This softened glass is then wrapped around an iron rod to shape it. Once the shaped glass cools, the iron rod is removed, creating a through hole that allows for string or metal components to be attached as charms. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53159562710_58aaf7c4ac_n.jpg Japan's "Hotaru-ishi," also known as Okinawa Firefly Stone. Firefly stone is a type of glass bead made using a special technique combining silver foil and glass. It is named "firefly stone" because the luster of the silver foil shines like a firefly. Its sparkling deep blue color is as if the beautiful ocean of Okinawa has been miniaturized and captured within the glass bead, shimmering before everyone's eyes. [Luminous Glass Beads] https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53159201024_70de5b034c_n.jpg The glass beads themselves do not emit light. However, the phosphorescent substances within absorb sunlight and then release stored energy in darkness, which allows them to glow. When you notice the glass bead is no longer glowing, simply place it in sunlight to absorb light again, and it will shine once more. Each glass bead is handcrafted by skilled artisans, making every pattern unique and highlighting its individual beauty. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53158287937_c49c11ae76_w.jpg ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [Shipping Information] [ Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan ] Shipped via Hongkong Post as small packets.
