Included in this lot is this antique Miyuki Delica seed bead Daisies and Black-eyed Susans
floral arrangement in a brass vase. During the early part of the Showa period in Japan (first few years of Emperor Hirohito's reign in the 1930s), Seiichi Katsuoka started glass seed manufacturing in Fukuyama. His grandson, Masayoshi Katsuoka, established and named the Miyuki brand in 1974, preparing it to become the world famous manufacturer it is today. Their mission focused on creating beauty. Miyuki beads are prized for their world class quality, colours, innovation, artistry and uniform shape, relied upon by makers of delicate jewellery all around the globe. The colour formulations by glass bead manufacturers are closely guarded secrets and this is where Miyuki has invested a lot in research and development. This is in comparison to say companies that manufacture cheaper beads in India and China, which in the worst of cases has seen the dyes/colour sometimes wear off on the wearer or their clothes. There are several types of beads but the most well known are the Delica beads which are a cylindrical and offer massive flexibility in design work. They look as though they lock together to present an unbroken surface. The arrangement and vase are in good overall condition, the brass has consistent levels of patina throughout. Apart from slight scratches/scuffing, no other obvious damage noted. Measurements are 4"H x 5"W at mouth, 4.5" at the base approximately.
