[QUOTE="Jivvy, post: 904476, member: 8184"]Some kind of very fine twisted cable wire coated in plastic. Or that's my best recollection (they were re-strung 30+years ago) and after looking without my magnifying glasses. :bucktooth::bored: I think these are the only fiorato I ever bought. Of course, when you have this many in one piece, why would you need more? :joyful: And yes, I refuse to call them "wedding cake beads" -- I don't know where that name came from and I hate it. There is no rationale behind my hatred and I'm usually loosey-goosey with new names/changing language/non-traditional. But not on this one. :stop::bag::hilarious:[/QUOTE]
