Powderglass, Early "Rattlesnake" Bead Imitation, 8x10mm on 26-inch Strand
AFS-292
- Grey and White early Krobo imitation of Venetian "rattlesnake" trade beads!
- 8x10mm on 26-inch strand
- Here layers of white glass have been intentionally unevenly funneled into the mold to create the illusion of wavy lines on the surface of the bead.
- For an example of later more sophisticated Krobo "rattlesnake" see AFG-58
- And for the Venetian version in black and yellow see AFT-23
- The prices of the Venetian give an idea of the incentive to copy them, and this strand marks a milestone in Krobo beadmaking history.
