We are getting ready for the Global Village Museum "Beads and Baskets" show in Fort Collins, Colorado, USA. Mike (the snowflake photographer) has been taking pictures of beads, as I had mentioned before in this forum. Here is a seal bead that he photographed that I always wanted to know about, but lacked the expertise to present. The bead looked like it got chewed up in a garbage disposal. One bead sharing night, someone decided to test it on on clay and WOW! If real it could be the oldest bead I own, though help me date it please. If not....oh well :-)
See next post for impression. I will update my posting skills-I promise.
