Measurements: 20mm long x 12mm wide with a 2mm threading hole
Quantity per pack: 5 beads - chosen at random (beads may vary from the photos as each bead is individual - photo is a guide only).
Origin: Hand Made in India - We believe this bead to be a reproduction of a Trade Bead. They have been sand blasted to give an aged look.
These beads are a transparent pinkish/purplish/brown glass with white lines (usually 6) running vertically, spaced out around the bead.
Bead Shack made a huge bead haul around 2007, and these beads were quite old before that. The man we purchased them from used to collect large hauls of beads that became available, so who knows how long ago they were made! Our best guess would be around 1980s.
