Old Venetian stripe beads, retaining almost all of their smooth, glossy, glass-like surface. This type often shows significant wear even in short, sliced pieces, but these have miraculously beautiful surfaces. There are minor chips on the cut sides, but the surface has only small scratches and doesn't detract from the appearance. Suitable for collections, etc. These are antique glass beads, so they are different from new Venetian beads. Please consider only if you understand this. Tonbo-dama (glass beads) Trade beads Africa
