  • Antique striped Venetian drawn beads 7mm diameter
  • Classic African mustard, brick, and black colors on 30-inch strand
  • Very minimal chips or pitting
  • These beads are made by applying stripes to the outside of a large "gather" of glass and blowing it into a long tube. Once cooled, it's sliced into beads
  • Because the colors of these striped beads are often made from the same glass as Venetian millifiori or lampworked beads they combine well with them
  • These colors, and these beads specifically, are highly prized in West Africa
