Been buying a lot of ancient beads this year. My favorite type is what I call elongated bi-cone. Here are two images of the majority of this type bead we have and will be displaying this year.

Found in the Indus/Swat valley. If anyone has feedback on this style bead as to the main culture they came from I would love hearing you opinion.

Largest bead 64.4mm 2.53 inch in second image.

Enjoy ....... Danny
