Wonderful beads, Danny. It's a pleasure to see them. The skill of the people who made them with such simple technology is what always impresses me. And you're the perfect person to be collecting them, because you have an unparalleled understanding of the stone. I like particularly the small pendant-shaped beads; the stone is so translucent and the finish is perfect. Any chance of some close-ups? Here, just for comparison, is a similar bead, somewhat later probably. It's perforated vertically, not horizontally, with its original Roman gold mounting intact.
