Old Brass Tube Beads - Ghana (ME165)

Ornate brass cylinder tube and glass cylinder beads. There are 35 beads in total, ranging in size from 8-50mm long x 11-15mm in diameter (approx 10mm hole). Each bead was handmade from wax and then cast with molten brass, a process which dates back to the 7th century in Africa; because of this process no two are perfectly identical. Expect imperfections, each is unique and somewhat crude in character. This strand is one of kind, you will receive exactly what is pictured.
