Its a hollow rod that has lots of scratches up and down it, when it is worked it lays down with hundreds of bubbles in it, its beautiful, Sooz at The Bead shed sells it by the rod, lovely colours,

It looks great over transparent base colours too

To make it go further use it to encase other colours, still get the same effect but your rod will go a little bit further.

For another bubbly effect, try rolling your bead in baking soda and then encasing it
