8 fancy Antique VENETIAN GLASS BEADS from AFRICAN TRADE

A string of 8 lovely antique Venetian made glass beads from the African trade, dating from the late 1800's to the early 1900's more or less with fancy raised floral patterns in a seldom found red color. The condition is very good to excellent (these beads came from a very old collection and all of the beads were first quality), showing some light age and wear overall, averaging about 12 mm in diameter and 12 mm through the stringing hole. Please note that most of the photographs have been enlarged, and may look larger than the size of the actual items. Also, colors may appear somewhat different in the viewers computer than the item is in person.
