In ceramics or glasswork, a technique where beads or bead-like formations appear on a glazed surface.
From bead + flush (Middle English 'flusen' meaning to flow or rush). This technical term emerged in pottery and glassmaking crafts to describe a specific surface texture.
Beadflush effects in pottery happen when glazes cool at just the right speed—craftspeople once thought these decorative beaded patterns were accidental, but now they're intentionally created through precise temperature control.
