Condition: There is some minor wear, pitting and very small chips in some of the beads. However, all of them are completely intact with no cracks going through to the perforation hole in any of them.

No additional accessories are included.
Description: This is a full strand of antique Venetian chevron beads. All of the beads are composed of five consecutive layers of colored glass and are originally from 17th/18th century Venice, Italy (exact age is unknown). The majority of Venetian chevron beads made during this period were exported to West Africa or the Americas and typically had layers in red, white and blue glass. These beads also have green glass making them a little more rare.
There are 46 beads total, all approximately 0.85" (21mm) in diameter and range in length from 0.5" to 0.75" (19mm). They are strung on raffia cord (which is not antique), and the total strand length is 32". Total weight is 1-1/4 lbs.
