A highly sought-after collection of ancient antique beads discovered during an excavation dig in Hebron – a city in the West Bank, nestled in the Judean mountains – and a short distance from Jerusalem.
Similar beads have also been unearthed in various parts of Egypt.
Well-worn, our strands of middle eastern glass beads are believed to be between 500 and 1500 years old – and as a result, they’re not perfect by any stretch of the imagination.
With collectibles as old as these beads, which measure between 8-16mm, imperfections such as chips, cracks, and in a few cases, some forms of calcification are the norm.
All that is part of the excitement one experiences when unravelling treasures such as these very rare beads.
We have three strands which contain approximately 40 beads each.
So, whether you are a collector wanting to invest in these ancient beads, or whether you’re an aspiring creator of fine jewellery – these strands are well worth considering.
Kick your imagination into overdrive and then with your hands start creating a stylish Boho or a vintage-inspired piece of jewellery – a necklace, a bracelet, a pair of earrings, or perhaps an ankle.
Each bead is priced at $3.
So, something stylish, out of very old treasure beads will create something very beautiful – the ball is in your court now.
