Description: Condition is hard to gauge because these beads look very old and have the flea bites and chips of stone jewelry that is at least 100 years old. There is a sizeable gouge in one of the large cylinder beads, but not deep enough to reach the drill hole. Some beads have large pits, and all of them have natural striations, flaws, inclusions and variations in color and size. These massive beads are comprised of mostly hand-cut bicone faceted beads and a couple polished cylinder beads. They are strung on a thick silk cord with no visible stretch or damage. They are strikingly similar to ancient carnelian German Idar-Oberstein beads that were traded in Africa in the 19th Century. Large (24+ ") and weighty (over 130 grams), these universally revered stones are ready to be worn or repurposed.
