[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 363911, member: 2844"]You can go back to edit and delete the duplicates. Edit: Davey already did that. I really love your necklaces. The trade beads are of different origins, not just Venetian. The long black one in the second necklace is a Chinese glass Dzi bead: [ATTACH=full]124520[/ATTACH] I suspect the black round and ovoid beads in the first necklace are also Chinese, and I can see another Chinese one in nr 2. Chinese trade beads have also been shipped to North America for centuries, just like European ones. The smaller colourless beads in the first necklace are Dutch beads, and possibly the oldest ones. I think there are some Bohemian beads as well. The ages are as mixed as the beads themselves, most of them are late 19th-early 20th century, as you thought. The Dutch beads are older, difficult to say how old. They are very rare.[/QUOTE]
