    Description

    These uncommon melon chevron beads are a rare find, originating from Venice and crafted by hand over 100 years ago. The six layers of blue, red, and white glass create a striking chevron pattern, making them a unique addition to any collection. These beads are sure to add some character to your jewelry project, your bead collection, or for trading.  The vast majority of any imperfections in these beads were in the original condition.  And, I have provenance, if you're interested.
    A Small Flat Rate Priority box will hold quite a few beads, so be sure to look at my other listings; I will pack multiple purchases together with no extra fees but postage may go up if the scale requires it.  I typically ship USPS Ground Advantage or Priority.  Tell me if you'd like a different shipping option before you pay and I’ll get the quote from eBay.  Sorry, no returns.
