This is a Venetian millefiori piece made from the late 19th to early 20th century. It's an elbow type, made by creating a tube and then curving it. This shape works well for necklaces. This bead has a white base with a temari (hand ball) pattern. While it's not brightly colored, I personally like this type of color scheme.
