Original Message:   Re: Chevron Beads

Dear PB, Your photo includes two imitation chevron beads. That is to say, two non-cane beads, that are instead wound, and made to resemble chevron beads. These are found throughout Island SE Asia, as far north as Japan (I think). Their origin remains a mystery, though recent copies are now made in Java. I'm familiar with the brown cylinder with the look of gold in the interior, but I can't say I know who made them nor how old they are. They remind me of certain German marble beads from about 100 years ago. Jamey Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
