Sterling Silver Granulated Beads
This section of the bead gallery includes beads that are especially marked by the use of small or large granulations, each individually soldered into place on the base bead.
The first uses small silver dots (granulations) to create texture. The second uses very tiny granulations and is known in Bali silversmith circles as a "particle bead." The third item below incorporates larger disks (along with some wire work).
