Ancient Bactrian Carnelian Bead Collection

Near East & Mediterranean regions. An assemblage of carnelian, jasper, and agate beads gathered from across the ancient Near East and Mediterranean world, spanning the Bronze Age through the medieval era.

Also present within the group are select examples in metal, faience, and glass, of similar antiquity or later eras. Ideal for a jeweler, these stones are ready to be restrung into one-of-a-kind earrings, bracelets, or more! Total weight: 125 grams A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.
