24" Str Vintage African Glass Trade Beads, Deep Red White Hearts 5x6mm

Description

For sale today we have a strand of unusual vintage Venetian or Czech trade beads from the 1900's. These glass beads have white cores with deep red overlay.
There are about 24 inches of beads that measure approximately 5x6mm, larger than most. They are hand crafted, so each bead is unique in size and shape. No two beads are exactly the same.
What makes these beads different from others is their rich deep red color which is unusual for red white-hearts. I could not resist buying several strands that I have been wearing together for a lush look. I always receive compliments.
The strand can be worn as is because it is long enough to slip over the head. You can also use these beads as spacers in your own bead creations. They will add a rich look to the other beads.
They are in excellent vintage condition.
