Product Details

Admire this unique strand of beads made from ancient glass pieces found in the region along the historic silk road. Commonly referred to as Roman Glass, the material for these beads is derived from ancient cups, vases, and perfume containers that have sustained the travails of time. The glass pieces have been carefully cut, drilled, and strung together but you can see still the variation in color of the ancient glass. No two strands are alike but you will receive a strand similar to that pictured. These little beads are highly versatile and can be used as both spacers and accent beads. Truly something special to use in any jewelry design. Multiple strands pictured. Each strand is sold individually and may vary slightly from photo. You will receive a 16" strand. 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.

Love

These beads are very unique. They have a great color variation, and a have a rough white finish, almost as if you just picked them up on the beach. I received 20 beads. Separating each bead are 3 small rough beads that are also cute! You’ll love them.
