This is a very rare gorgeous ancient glass ribbon bead with longitudinal laid cane stripe pieces which was found in Mali and comes via the African trade. This ancient glass bead measures 26.34mm long by 9.44mm wide and is in great overall rustic condition with some minor surface wear. I combine shipping on multiple orders so please check out my ebay store Mountainamma's Marketplace where I have thousands of items to browse through from Africa and beyond. For buyers of multiple items message me before checking out for help combining shipping fees.
