This string has been shown in an earlier post. It is a neat looking group of spherical and oval shaped mosaic cane eye type glass beads contemporary with similar more western Mediterranean types, but using different colors. The source was reported as the eastern Black Sea littoral. They are about 9 x 12 mm up to 11 x 18 mm in size and should date from about 600 to 1100 AD more or less.
