Old Ostrich Eggshell Beads (Large)

Ostrich Eggshell Beads have been used to create jewelry designs for centuries. The muted natural tones of the weather-worn beads show a subtle beauty. Beads such as these are sometimes found by farmers and villagers who collect them together from the ground. This unusual larger sized strand could be used as decorative piece or even a necklace. Individual beads measure approximately 2mm wide x 9-20mm in diameter with a hole size of 1-2mm and a strand length of 25-28". Each strand is unique and may vary slightly from photo.
