-MEDIEVAL SECONDS
-
Usually we will not buy any damaged or worn beads unless present on mixed strands of other good beads that we require. However, because Medieval beads of this vast age are very special and of so much historic interest, we have bought and offer you the beads featured below.
-
They are pictured with their best sides / faces showing and have been marked with codes to denote why their condition prevents them being offered as 1st class examples of their type.
In reality. most are only only showing slightly more than the normal wear and tear to be associated with 1000+ years of handling and often a harsh existence beneath the desert sands.
-
 Ideal for glass research and identifcation, display or lecture purposes and offered at prices considerably less than the beads on the previous pages. As a guide, the lower the price, the more faults in the bead's condition .. although all can still be considered as valuable assets.
