Hi melissa
the two black tear drop shape with an eye on them are cut and filed from a single trangular bead from the time period of jam dot nasser around 3000bc in easter Syria. The duck shape wieght suppose to be babilonian, but the style of its neck is wrong. I suspect it to be new reproduction. The white glazed kwartz bead on the right side of the to black eye beads might be late islamic 13th century AD fist check for fingers on the lower part the thumb suppose to be folded inwards.
All the best yankee
