VINTAGE RIBBED METAL BRASS BEADS Tapered ROUND 14mm pkg 4 M32

Description

Vintage raw brass round ribbed beads that are very versatile and unique . They're a wonderful shape - a round bead with tapered ends!I used them in a number of designs I did for the Smithsonian's bridge jewelry department in the mid 1980's.

I was always looking for interesting metal components that I could add to the necklaces or use in earrings that I designed for trunk shows at Bloomingdales. These beads, although over 40 years old, are still in very good shape with very little patina at all as you can see in the pictures.

******* If you love this bead, please check out my item no M-05 which is a similar bead but in a larger 18mm size as well as item no M-026 which is the same bead but in a 10mm size ! I also have a teardrop shaped bead like this that is M-029 ! ***

Price is for 4 of these beads which each measure approximately 14mm and I 100% guarantee them to be vintage ribbed brass from the 1960's.

I sold many of these unique corrugated brass beads during the 1980's - they were also featured in trunk shows at Bloomingdales and Saks Fifth Avenue during this same time period.
