Description: This is a very large antique Venetian seven layer chevron drawn cane bead which was traded into and collected from Africa. This antique Italian seven layer chevron bead measures 1.52 inches long (point to point) by 1.32 inches wide! Pretty good but very, very rustic condition with a lot of surface wear and dinging, especially to the bead ends which are also worn down on the top of the perforation from being worn on a necklace a lifetime or more. Also, a really cool air bubble pit goes straight through the top of the perforation. This is a very, very old antique African trade bead which is a small piece of history.
