Your bead has characteristics in-common with both of the Viking-style millefiori beads I show. And it is more like the left of the two. However, it is not "the same." Only similar.

One of the reasons I fudged on saying you bead is most likely Egyptian (or as the antiquarians like to say "Roman-Egyptian"), is that I do not recognize the details of the four-leaves cane as being consistent with specimens I can recall. However, I'd have to pull up a lot of photographs to make a comparison. So, it's not that I'm greatly in doubt. iIt's that I haven't made the comparison.

With the bead I show, the leaves appear to be green with a yellow outline. Not at all the same as your bead.

One of the Viking-style beads is verging on being biconical—which I think is fairly unusal for these beads. (I don't recall any in Callmer's analysis of Viking beads.) It's also pretty unusual for an Alexandrian millefiori bead, for that matter. So, as it happens, your bead is more like the shape of at least one bead from 1,000 years ago, even though the size and general appearance (apart from the shape) tends to associate it with beads from 2,000 years ago.

Just to clarify.
