This is a collection of very, very old antique European Vulcanite molded hard rubber disk beads sometimes called vinyl beads because they were once thought to be made from old vinyl records. These antique European beads were traded into Africa long ago. This antique bead set is in great rustic condition with surface patina. This bead set measures 5 inches long just measuring the beads and not the stringing material. These beads were salvaged from a very old broken tribal necklace which was collected in the Congo and the beads vary in sizes. Largest average bead size is 20mm long by 0.59mm wide (thick) and they are very thin disk beads. Perfect for adding to your African trade bead collection or for jewelry applications.
