Product Details

Take a moment to marvel at these lovely strands of Aqua Glass beads. These striking glass beads are made from the pieces of antique Afghani Bangles and are said to be very old. The glass is also sometimes identified as Roman Glass. Each strand of these Aqua Glass Beads truly has a remarkable story to tell. Each bead strand is about 34" in length. Each artisan bead is approximately 7-17 x 4-6mm and roughly has a 1.5mm bead stringing hole. Multiple strands pictured. Each strand is sold individually. Own a piece of history, get yourself a strand today! 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.

Fulfilling my dream of Roman glass

I've longed for some Roman glass for 15 years or more, but it has always been beyond my reach. I'm so happy to have these beads! Their colors and sheen are beautiful. I wish I knew more about them, their specific origin, how they were made, etc. -- and how old they really are, because it's hard to believe that I can actually afford to own something made a couple of thousand years ago.. But I love them, whatever their provenance!

Unique and Historic beads

I love these one of a kind beads made from glass made long ago. Great size for incorporating into jewelry. Nice muted colors of blue and green!
