These clay beads are very old stock from a storage lot, that we scooped up years ago. You won't find beads in many places that are like these! Truly unique handmade beads! We are almost certain these are made in Peru, using a terracotta/clay base, with hand painted decoration.
The painting is pink, with black over the top for the design and then some of the stripes around have an 'Aztec gold' paint. It's a great effect, and these truly unique beads will be fabulous on many of your jewellery creations, lending an Aztec theme to your work.
We can't be certain of their exact information, rather we are giving suggestions of what these beads are, and where they are from, how they are made etc, from information gathered from our general observations over the last many years in the bead trade.
