Detail & Features
How cool are these beads?! These are a variation on beads traditionally called Glass Snake Vertebrae because of the way they interlock like a snake's backbone. These are an unusual pinion shape, and they "stack" together to make the coolest pattern! You could wear this strand as a necklace or break it apart to use individual beads in your jewelry designs.

These beads are old; they date back as early as the early 1900's and originated from Europe. They do show some dirt and minor chips on some of the edges, but this is part of their beauty and attests to their age. African beads have such mystery attached to them; they have been worn for decades, travelled continents, and will be around for hundreds of years into the future. Be a part of the mystery and let these beads grace you with their presence.
