Batik Bone Bead Necklace Collection (5)
Offered in this lot is a collection of five Batik Bone bead necklaces. Batik Bone beads are popular in most African countries and are handcrafted from bone. They are then dyed through the batik method to give them color, most often black and white or lovely shades of brown. Each batik bead is carved by hand, so each is a unique piece of art. These five necklaces are 26" to 30" in total length. Two necklaces are made of cylinder beads that are an average of 1" long. The other three necklaces are made of slightly flat oval beads that are an average of 1/2" X 5/8". The raffia has come unknotted on one necklace, but all of the other necklaces and beads are tightly strung and in good condition.
