Description
- These beads are priced and sold individually
- Elongated, tapered, four-sided Gond oval beads
- I believe these rare beads were first forged in solid brass, then drilled. The openings of some show wear, but not as much as the small beads at ASM-1076
- These, along with most brass beads in India, had been dismissively called "Tribal" but became collectible on the international market in the 1980s and now have mostly disappeared
- Only two beads this length available. For shorter versions see ASM-1077 and ASM-1074
