Description
-
Ancient Turquoise beads from the Bactrian area of northern Afghanistan
-
16-inch strand of 1mm diameter micro beads and from lozenges 4-5mm wide by 5-7mm long with mysterious darker stone or glass pendant
-
Assembled from beads found in the Bactrian area of northern Afghanistan, these beads are among the types widely traded to the Indus Valley, Mesopotamia and Egypt between 1000 and 3000 BCE
- I like to follow the ancient style, combining these with small ancient carnelians and gold. Even thos they aren't glass I'm letting they show up in Ancient Glass b/c they are relates and I hope will be easier for collectors to find here.
