I just stumbled upon these photos taken a few years ago. Don't remember if I ever posted them or not.

Here are some photos showing a small collection of old Venetian(mainly)disk shaped beads, some barrels....etc, from the African trade. Most of these are 10-12mm in diameter. Great variation in colors and patterns and I really dig them. Late 1800s to early 1900s.
