The bead is fired in a kiln at high temperatures, melting the powder into a smooth, glossy glass enamel. Because the enamel shrinks as it melts, this process of filling and firing is often repeated multiple times. Finally, the bead is ground down and polished until the metal wire work sits flush with the vibrant glass surface, creating a smooth, durable, and highly detailed miniature work of art.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-hveid=\"CAAIChAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Pre-owned \/ Vintage.
