HI Fred,
Thanks for your answer.
I saw very often this site but my english is not very fluently, and I hesitated to write!!!
Your necklaces are absolutely gorgeous and you have some beads I have put on the site: the bead to the left of the big black bead in the first necklace. I don't know whether I have so many fabulous islamic beads!! I like to see beautiful beads on this site, and for me, it's very pleasant to see unusual beads. I need to see the beads of collectors. I love the work about these ancient beads, the technique, the dexterity., the history, the life and the long way from the bead-making to my hand! I find that absolutely fascinating!!...
this last bead is an islamic glass bead. I bought it unfortunately repaired but I have never seen an another like it. It seems with relief but I think it is only the wear of the different textures of glass.
My pics are only for eyes' pleasure and I like to debate to learn more!!
