Red Vaseline Beads
Red Vaseline Beads
Description
Each of these beautiful 'Vaseline' red recycled glass beads are approximately 3/8 X 5/8, larger and smaller thicknesses. The strand is 24 inches long, and has approx. 48-52 beads
Vaseline beads come from West Africa, and were made beginning in the early 1900's. Originally, these African beads were made from glass that was enriched in 1-2% uranium oxide in order to enhance the color, causing the green and yellow ones to fluoresce brightly under a blacklight. But the use of uranium was banned in the 1940's. Although these beads come from and are used in Africa, they were manufactured in Bohemia and Czechoslovakia.
