Hello to all, I havenīt posted since the last trip, but followed most of yours, just lurking... Today I like to ask for some beads, I put on side during the last two years, without knowing, where they come from or how old they are. I have assumptions on some and will say this, but it would be nice, if someone will correct or confirm. All beads were bought from Moroccan traders, who got them from Mali, Mauritania, Ghana etc., and came on mixed Venetian strands.

I know, that this are a lot of questions for one time, but Iīm not in a hurry, so take your time. Many thanks in advance for your answers...!

I will start with 5 beads that are all 5-sided, but I would guess, from various locations and of different age. The bead to the right has this "moon-bead-effect" and my guess would be, itīs a Bohemian bead, without knowing, how old this one or the others could be...

Dimensions: 13.5 - 17mm in length and 11 -12mm in diameter, with 3.5 -4.5mm openings
