A beautiful clay bicone bead with white circles... The bead is about 29x30 mm. Please note that these beads were handmade so each bead varies. You will receive one that is similar to the ones in the photo. My affection for these beads dates back to when I first heard that these 'Spindles' actually evolved into the beads they are today because of our avid collectioner's heart (all Beaders have one of those!) Originally these Spindles were actually made to spin cotton but then people started collecting them because they were so beautiful. They became rare .. so some enterprising people started making new ones but more as the beads they are today... They are so beautiful and evoke the country, Africa just by handling them and by the fact that they are made from Africa's earth. -
