Doll's Eyes (painting)

Doll's Eyes is a term most commonly associated with a type of polished, opaque glass beads used in jewelry making and crafting. These beads typically feature a distinctive, milky white appearance with a black central dot, resembling the eyes of a porcelain doll. The effect is created through the layering and composition of the glass during manufacturing. While the exact manufacturing processes vary, they generally involve layering different colored glass and then shaping and polishing the bead to create the final product. The "eyes" can vary slightly in size and appearance depending on the manufacturer and specific techniques employed. Their consistent, slightly unsettling resemblance to doll's eyes accounts for their popular and somewhat macabre name. These beads are readily available in various craft stores and online marketplaces and are used in a wide array of projects, including jewelry, sculptures, and other decorative items.
