  • Ancient Turquoise beads from the Bactrian area of northern Afghanistan
  • 16-inch strand of 2-3mm heishi with small, flat rectangular  beads about 5x5mm
  • Assembled from beads found in the Bactrian area of northern Afghanistan, these beads are among the types widely traded to the Indus Valley, Mesopotamia and Egypt between 1000 and 3000 BCE
  • I like to follow the ancient style, combining these with small ancient carnelians and gold
