30 inches Strand Length
These old glass beads are found in Mali and likely designed to simulate agate stone. Populating a wide swath of West Africa, the people of the Fulani tribe have long put high value on the decorative arts. Although the exact provenance of these beads is unknown it's possible that that they may have originated in Southeast Asia and been subsequently traded to the African Continent. Strung on a durable cord and nicely finished with raffia, each bead is unique and will have it's own special pattern and texture. Some beads may show signs of age. Good for jewelry-making, home decor, or even may be worn as a necklace. You will receive the exact strand pictured.

    I love the old, used, loved, full-of-stories look of these beads. Think I'll make a simple shorter necklace so they can all be appreciated.
