VINTAGE Italian GLASS BEADS Black Barrel 20 x 12mm pkg 2 GL136

Description

Vintage black glass beads that are an unusual faceted rectangular shape! I've never seen beads like this since we found them so many years ago.

These beads were also found at the wonderful outdoor marketplace that we discovered in Ventimiglia ,Italy while on our way to Nice, France in 1980!

I used them in necklaces as focal beads as the shape is so unique!

They are vintage glass and I know they are at least 25 years old and as you can see, they still have a beautiful luster as they have been well protected all these years.

Price is for 2 of these beads which are approximately
12mm x 20mm - I 100% guarantee these beads to be vintage glass from at least the 1970's if not older.

I sold many such unique and one of a kind glass beads through the Smithsonian Institution's museum shop and mail order catalog during the 1980's and they were also featured in trunk shows at Bloomingdales and Saks Fifth Avenue during this same time period.
