Re: Probably Not Venetian -- Beadman | Post Reply | Edit | Forum | Where am I? |
Having composed the book Wild Beads of Africa with Billy Steinberg in 2018, I can now remark that I recognize this to be an antique powderglass bead, probably made by a Krobo craftsman.
I will show two photos from the book for comparison. The second photo shows a somewhat larger and more-elaborate oblate bead that also has spiral appliqués.
