Description: A larger antique Venetian cream colored molded bead with inlaid trail and murrine decoration; 1800s; scarce and unusual item. One bead only. Measurements: About 24mm long x 10mm diameter. Selling Helping a friend and former jewelry maker sell off her extensive collection of (mostly African) trade beads; not a dealer, so once it's gone, it's gone... descriptions based on old records and own research; I was a collector of West African art and artifacts for almost 20 years. Serious offers considered, if you don't like the price. Thank you for looking at my eBay listings with sea glass and other treasures! Please take a moment to look at my other items; discounted shipping is offered when you buy and pay for multiple lots at the same time, and I usually have MANY lots listed (click the "Shipping & payments" tab for full details). FREE SHIPPING for total purchases over $75.00! Note the relatively low shipping costs-- most lots ship via USPS first class mail to save expenses. $12.00 to ship and "handle" a single small item by Priority Mail strikes me as a bit extravagant. Priority Mail is typically used for bulkier and heavier items, or for multiple-item purchases with 8 or more items. Yes, overseas shipping has become quite expenses, but blame the USPS, not me!
