This is a seven strand mixed lot of useful old flat ended type glass trade beads. They feature a wide bead hole, a consistent shape, and flat ends. This type of bead are very traditionally worn for adornment in West Africa, particularly as waist beads. These are all in good shape for their age showing a minimal patina of tribal use and wear including some discoloration and grime. You will receive the exact pictured beads which are strung on raffia in the traditional manner. This is a large mixed lot of lovely and authentic tribal component spacer beads for artist, designer, or collector and not to be missed!
