Silver Metal Saucer Beads 15mm, Mauritania (ME110)

These beads came from Gambia, Africa, but were used in Mauritania. They are saucer shaped and at least 50 years old. Though they are in very good condition, expect imperfections as they were made using somewhat primitive tools. They are silver in color, but an alloy of several different metals. The strand measures 36" and there are just under 100 beads in total, each measuring approx 15mm x 9mm.
