Vintage Lucite acrylic beads, probably made in Germany around 1950.s to 1960s.
These unusual Baroque style beads have the hole going through the length of the teardrop (in other words centre drilled) with a beautiful Bohemian leafy swirly design etched into the bead. The beads have a barely visible line 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!
Measurements: 19mm long x 13mm wide x 8mm thick with a 1mm threading hole
Quantity per pack: 10 beads
Circa: 1950 ~ 1960
