Burmese Beads - Information Needed Please

Posted by Jessica on October 12, 2012 at 8:09am in Discussions

Hello to the forum!

Love to see that so many people on here respect and appreciate ethnographic pieces.

I am hoping to get as much information as possible on these beads (please see photo)... Believed to be Ancient Burmese Beads that have been buried. Looking for any additional information you can give me!

Thanks so much in advance.

    Hi Jessica. The beads that you show in the picture are Hebron glass beads. They are made using alkalines from the salts of the Dead Sea.
    Here is a link to some information regarding the beads
