Antique French carved tagua beads. 8mm. These beads came in packages with labels written out in fountain pen script. Perles Corozzo Noir Guilloché. Corozzo is the Tagua Palm and the wood has long been used for carved beads and accessory objects. Guilloché means carved in this case. These beads are rare and beautiful. Package of 10
I really like the matrices in Hubei turquoise and these don't disappoint. The range of colors is really nice. I have combined these beads with shell heishi (also available from Earthly Adornments), silver and carnelian, the result is stunning (friend's opinion). Next project will be with citrine and brass. They are very versatile.
This is the second or third time I have purchased this bead. It is very unique and works well with lots of colors and styles. I made a bracelet last month with several of these beads in it. I did not even get a chance to list the bracelet, someone bought it off my arm (I test drive my pieces).
I highly recommend it as I do working with Earthly Adornments - they are professional, very helpful and knowledgeable. They have an excellent supply of vintage and antique beads.
