Circa: 1970~1980
Vintage Lucite acrylic beads, probably made in Germany around 1970s to 1980s.
These patterning which reminds me of a turtle's shell. The beads have a barely visible seam going around the outside of the bead, which is totally lost in the patterning.
Our stock is very old, as they were part of a huge bead haul we did around 2007, and they were really old before that.
Make anything you like with these! They will be great on earrings &/or necklaces, bracelets too. Such unusual beads will be sure to be a talking point with your friends!
This tan colour in this range just really makes you want to start creating!
These have a matte finish, and they look to me like they have been hand painted/stained somehow - the colour finishes just inside the holes.
Beads with large holes big enough for thick rope to pass through are really hard to come by! But here at Bead Shack we have quite a range of large holed beads!
