The five sellers at the Ethnographic Room are not to be missed either. In addition, there are a lot of other interesting beads to be found in the rooms and event center at the Grand Luxe.

I bought a huge (25 mm diameter) Islamic era folded bead from Bassem Elias, and a lovely set of Chinese carved, lacquered beads from Jamey Allen, who is representing the Summerfield Collection. The latter are already composed into a necklace with an interesting Bakelite button pendant.
