Original Message:   Really - like a stratified eye almost

Hi Nishedha, What a beautiful bead. Thanks for showing it. What age do you think it is? And could it have come originally from West or even Central Asia? I've been struck before by the resemblance of some carnelian or agate eye beads to Phoenician stratified glass beads, and this one embodies the resemblance perfectly. Is this the effect those Phoenician beadmakers were aiming for, I wonder? All the best, Will Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
