Black 'skunk' bead necklace, with knotted material cord

CODE: SKBN 100


Price: $200.00

In stock
Black 'skunk' bead necklace from beads made in Venice c.1900 for the African trade and found in Ethiopia. These classic Trade beads are black glass with glass dots. They are 'sister' to the red skunk beads. Once again we have a well-established bead name which appears to make little sense - has a dotted skunk ever been seen? The next variation on this bead is the 'eye' bead where an extra red or blue dot is placed on the white dot. We do stock eye beads from time to time so keep an 'eye' out for them on our website! Length 45.5cm.
