"Evil Eye" Copies Multicolor Glass Beads Indonesia
Description
Lovely strand of African Trade beads, most likely made in Indonesia - copying Venetian lapwork bead styles, with a mix of "eye" motifs in green, red, black and white. They are sought after for their bold patterns and protective symbolism, traditionally associated with warding off negative energy.
This strand is not intended to be a ready-to-wear necklace. Although the strand can be worn "as is," the string holding it together is not durable and may break with wear. For this reason, we recommend that you restring the beads before wearing them.
