Questions About Vintage Ojime Beads
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021
    An ojime bead is a handcrafted decorative bead that is used in carrying cases. These beads are carved into specific shapes or feature images. They originated in Japan, and ojime in Japanese means “cord fastener.” The beads are usually 1 inch or less in diameter.
  • 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.
