Vintage Possibly Antique Green Uranium Glass Trade Beads Bead Strand
Please check out my video to see them glow under UV light. Not all of the beads glow, but most do as you can see in the video.
My opinion/ comments: Cool Old Beads. These beads are not new. Many have chips and wear marks and they could all use a good cleaning. This is shown in the images. They look like they lived a good life. Many still have plenty of life left in them to make something unique. Some folks prefer beads “as is” and prefer some patina, so I leave cleaning up to the discretion of the buyer.
This is a strand of beads. It is not meant to be a necklace or finished piece of jewelry.
There are a total of 50 beads shown.40 of the beads glow under the UV light as shown in the video and images. Some glow brighter than others.Most of the beads show wear or marks, indents & little imperfections. They are old. I see about 5 that have larger chips than others. Most of these chips are located by the holes. I tried to take as many photos as I could so you can see the condition. Please look closely so you know what you are getting & happy with your purchase.
I did not clean or polish this item as many folks prefer to purchase vintage/preowned jewelry as found or with some patina. I do not want to ruin any pieces using any harsh chemicals, so I leave all cleaning & polishing up to the discretion of the buyer.
Please look at all of the images to form your own opinion as to the condition of the beads listed as my personal opinion may differ from yours.
I have been selling on for over 20 years and love what I do. Please feel free to ask me any questions.
