Reproduction Beads by Ward Oles

18th cen repro full strand, some look like those currently available from the "African market" however the subtle difference is sets of 3 compound stripes and not the common 4 as with "modern" beads. Olive/ovilette, "dogbone", mulberry, twisted tube, and marvered included in this batch.

Graduated short strand...eventually I will get around to either making this a full matched strand, or adding "plainer" beads in between.
