Green Stone Beads Cooper Collection

Possibly Jade or Serpentine Provenance: From the collection of Austin Cooper, whose collection, built over 30 years, contained superb examples of ancient beads, Venetian and other European trade beads, Bodom, Akoso, and Kiffa beads, Jatim and other rare Asian beads. Austin had a superb eye, and Africa Direct is proud to be able to offer his beads, his legacy, many of which are of a quality rarely available today. PICTURE IS AN EXAMPLE. YOURS WILL BE SIMILAR. This strand is not intended to be a ready-to-wear necklace. Although the strand can be worn "as is," the raffia holding it together is not durable and may break with use. For this reason, we recommend that you restring the beads before wearing them. Strand Length: 16 inchBead Size: 1-2 mm diameter. See picture with penny for size comparison. 137097
