So happy with this strand of beads. They are in terrific shape, and as described. Most of them are smooth ovals, and there are a few cubes as well as faceted rounds (facets are in various stages of smoothness due to wear). Most are clear and smooth, some appear more “frosted”/matte due to age. I’d originally intended to take the strand apart but it’s beautiful as-is. Thank you!
The group of 10 vintage African trade beads is spectacular. Beads are in excellent condition and impressive size. Can't wait to use them in my jewelry projects. Many thanks
This is a great seller, always reliable and easy to work worth. The beads are as nice as I expected them to be.
Lovely beads that look interesting on many outfits. Just as described. Dealer went out of her way to answer my questions and talk with me about Venetian trade beads.
I love these recycled beads ! The colors are beautiful and I really like the rough unfinished look to them .
Wonderful authentic beads and the service was terrific and prompt. Shop with supreme confidence.
The color is clear and beautiful. These will be fun to work with! I recommend getting more than one size, but there is a lot of variation on a single string.
My daughter was trying to find glass beads from Ghana after buying some on a trip. We found them here! They arrived in good condition and very quickly.
Found Ghanaian glass beads that my daughter had been looking for everywhere! Very efficient and they were in excellent condition.
I have been collecting millefiori Venetian-made African trade beads since the 1970s, but this type of yellow bead with red stripes is increasingly hard to find. When one does, they are usually quite expensive, perhaps more than they should be, but that's the market today. The seller was great to accept my offer, and I am thrilled to have them now in my collection.
