Vintage Venetian Black Lampwork Aqua Yellow Feather & Eye Bead, African Trade

Description

I was lucky enough to come by this lot of 33 (thirty-three!) EXCEPTIONAL African trade beads.  I believe they are Venetian, and feature feathering of the yellow and aqua, as well as "eyes" in the same colors.  That said, their origin could be Java or India as well.
Clearly, these beads have been cleaned (the recommended method is to lightly wash off any dirt/grime and then oil them). They are still strung on the original raffia braid, which is good & strong, but definitely shows some wear/dirt.  If you wanted to used them for other purposes, a different cord would probably be in order.
If you're a collector, I would consider these to be in very fine vintage condition, with minimal wear, vibrant color, and fairly uniform size/shape.  Altogether, they weigh 156.8 grams!
***Before you ask, I'd really like to try to keep these beads together, if I can.  If they end up unsold, I will consider parsing them out.
