Ancient Bactrian Agate & Quartz Strand
Beautiful and rare old agate and quartz beads from the ancient central Asian country of Bactria, now northern Afghanistan. These are quite old, best guess 1000-1200 years old, highly collectible with subtle colors. Center agate bead is 12mm diameter. Spaced with ancient quartz beads which were excavated in Mali, West Africa. 5 small beads on this short strand. Truly one of a kind!
