Bag of 40 small-sized (roughly) 6-7mm diameter x 1mm thick with 1-2mm holes. Eja or Aja beads are altered (heated up and then squashed flat) Venetian beads from the mid-late 1800's which were primarily traded in Nigeria. Green with red and yellow stripes. A wonderful design detail and now quite rare!
