Ancient Egyptian Faience Beads with Ancient Glass Beads, from Egypt and West Africa - Rita Okrent Collection (AG275b)

A long, mixed strand of large ancient faience beads, from Egypt and medium ancient Nila and other ancient glass beads found in Mali.

Subtle blues, greens and beiges. Lots to work with.

Although the beads are worn and dirty on this strand, and for those who would like, they should clean up beautifully. With a little gentle cleaning a lot more blues and greens have already become evident.

40 inches of beads. Bead sizes range from 11-17mm diameter.

100 beads on strand.
