Glass Bangle Beads from Pakistan Yellow Tones X169

$26.05

These delicately shaped green bangle beads are sold in Pakistan, however, they are said to be manufactured in Afghanistan. They are commonly said to have been made from the shards of Roman Glass scattered along the Silk Road trade routes, and so are frequently referred to as Roman Glass. The beads themselves are modern. Their abundance in the marketplace casts doubt on whether they are truly made of ancient glass, and as a result, the common "Roman Glass" name for these beads is not accurate. But the beads are certainly beautiful in shape and color and make perfect accents in jewelry design. They are also priced to be highly affordable.

The beads range from about 7 to 17mm in length and are about 2-4mm in diameter. There are about 24-28 beads per strand, not including the tiny spacers. These are small beads, please note the size and also see the scale photos. Please also note that the strands do vary, the photos show several examples to underscore variability.

The scale of the ruler in the scale photos is metric (cm/mm). The listing is for one strand. Photos show multiple strands.

Weights and sizes are approximate.

COLORS: Our photos are taken in different lighting in an attempt to show how beads look in different lighting conditions. We make every effort to show colors as accurately as possible. The white background photos are taken in daylight conditions. The black background photos are taken in the strong lab light, and would be representative of what they would look like in the evening electric light. Some of the photos are backlit to emphasize their translucency. Note that monitor settings strongly affect the way the colors look. What you see on your monitor may differ from what you see with a naked eye depending on your monitor settings.
