An imitation with a thin design. I thought this was made by the Prosser technique (forming powdered glass into molds by pressure). Jamey believes it is porcelain and reports hollow examples.

Contemporary American glass beadmakers have tried their hands at chevron making. This one is by Brian Kerkvliet.

The American glass chevron pioneer is Art Seymour. This one has no less than eleven layers. He has made them at least up to fifteen layers.

The glass beadmakers of Purdalpur, India have gotten into the act. Their first chevrons (top) were obviously made by the hot-strip mosaic method without molds. They have greatly improved, but are still using the hot-strip method (bottom). [Thanks especially on this one, Jamey.]
