Here's a bead I've not seen before, from a recent purchase of a strand of old trade beads. It's clear with white stripes that are under an outer clear layer. Appears to be broken and / or roughly ground down on both ends. The bead is 20 mm long and 13 mm diameter at the widest part. The hole is about 2.5 mm.
Any ideas about it? An early design of "gooseberry" bead?
