A mixed blue, green and beige strand of graduated ancient glass and faience beads and hanging pendants from Egypt.
The 2 hanging pendant beads and 8 melon beads are especially fabulous!

When treated with a tiny bit of olive oil, the beige beads become a lovely subtle green.

72 beads including hanging pendants on strand. Weighs 122 grams. Beads are light weight but hardy. Beads have wear commensurate with age.
Lots to work with on this lovely strand.
