Marbles! How could we forget to mention them specifically? I guess that I lumped them in with sculptural stuff without thinking about it. I love making old fashioned style opaques and the occasional 'marbleweight' with murrini included. Coral reef marbles are my favorite of that style.
I also use a lot of enamels as backgrounds for floral and butterfly murrini beads. Lots of cool color and texture possibilities there.
