About Gold Sandwich Beads:

The Gold Sandwich beads date back to ancient Roman times and are also known as "gold dragonfly" beads. These beautiful golden beads are crafted by applying a thin layer of gold leaf to the core of the bead, which is then encased in glass of the same color, creating a gold layer within. This technique is known as "core-wound application." Originating from Alexandria in modern-day Egypt, these beads evoke the image of ancient Egyptian treasures gleaming in gold.
