It is not like the tornado or pleated beads (well some marked as pleated beads are more folded over than others), I will edit my comment to clarify.
The layers are folded over or pressed down so can see the layers of glass due to the clear in between. The layers aren't strait lines, they are wavy, curvy, ripples. Somehow the layers are stretched and moved into ripple or wave shapes. Like layers of waves coming up into a beach or agates.
They look similar to the flattened effect of the baleen beads, except would wrap around the entire bead. (The baleen beads seem to be more in actions and often vertically placed without ripples/waves which is why I think used differing techniques). The ripple bead would be the opposite lines and then the flattened layers would be moved (maybe raked or gravity or ?) to make these flattened layers wavy/rippled.
