Product Details

While the exact provenance of these ancient glass beads is shrouded in mystery, beads such as these are sometimes found in the deserts of Mali, West Africa. Sometimes identified as Roman Glass Beads, this unusual find is unique as it is beautiful. Look carefully and you will see each bead has its own character and the markings of the passage of time. These beads closely resemble the also rare Roman Eye Beads however they lack the distinctive patterning. This special piece is one of a kind. What you see is what you get. Suitable for making high end jewelry or simply as a collectible for the discerning bead buyer. Don't let this opportunity pass you by. You can write the next chapter of this strand's unique history! Note that while the material is said to be of old, possibly ancient origin, the precise age of the glass has not been independently verified.
