Original Message:   Egyptian Furnace Wound Melons

Hi These are all examples of fairly recently made furnace wound melon beads made in Egypt (Cairo to be exact). They belong to Torben Sode, the well-respected Danish archaeologist and bead specialist who showed them to the Bead Society of GB back in 2003. It's certainly a possibility that yours is from a similar tradition. Cheers Carole Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
