Magnificent Antique Granulated Bicone Beads, from Mauritania - Rita Okrent Collection (C462s)

Material/Condition: Silver (6 beads)

LIMITED AVAILABILITY: only 4 left

Lovely small antique/old granulated bicone beads,  in gold and silver, hand crafted by Mauritanian silversmiths.

Sold by half-dozen (6).  Each bead is hand-selected specifically for your order. Damaged beads now available at a discount.

These are superb collector's beads, handcrafted by Mauritanian silversmiths for traditional bridal jewelry.

Fabulous for designing. Wonderful addition to add elegance to earrings or any other creation.

Range in sizes from approximately 15-20mm (.6-.8 of an inch) in length. 6-8mm (.33 inch) at widest point.

I have only a limited quantity of these gorgeous treasures.

Most of these have slight damage (missing granulation, dents, wear).  This is accounted for in the pricing. I ship the ones in the best condition I have from our inventory.

I am now listing the more heavily damaged bicone beads as an option. If you order this option, the beads you receive my have holes, dents or other wear. They are sold as is but are still beautiful and useful for certain jewelry and artisan design. They will vary per order, but can be a mix of silver and gold. Sizes will vary.
