Approx. 18 beads |
1-2mm Hole |
15 inches Strand Length
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. If you look carefully, you will see that these beads have a unique patina endowed by the mineral deposits where the glass lay buried. Each glass piece has been individually drilled and threaded to create a strand. No two strands are alike but you will receive a strand similar to that pictured. Each strand has approximately 52 beads including spacers and 18 of the glass rectangle shape. Truly something special to use in any jewelry piece. 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.

Rustic shapes and color - LOVE

The rough shaped chunks have a beautiful range of colors: palest green through watery blue to smokey gray. I wear them as sold - already strung with.

Ancient Roman glass beads

These are just as pictured, they’re kind of organic, a little irregular, which makes them so pretty. I think each one is unique.
