Viking beads, Whithorn
A group of 'eye beads', a form very popular with the Norse, and
found on Viking sites in Man, Ireland, Orkney and across
Scandinavia..
They are made by touching a very thin glass rod
to the surface of the bead whilst it is hot to create a dot.
Contrasting dots are often superimposed on the first dot to create
a series of concentric dots that resemble an eye.
