BEADS: Antique Venetian BLUE Barrels Fancies

Description: Offered here are two nearly matching uncommon, scarce, fancy barrel trade beads in blue with latticinio eyes. They're nearly the same in size in the range of 14 mm by 11 mm. The yellow latticinio on the beads is cadmium sulphide, bright yellow, so they were made after 1860 up to, IMO, 1925. Very cool beads; blues tend to be scarce. Be sure to look at my other items because I combine as many items as I can safely pack in one box to save you a bundle on postage. Small items easily go in the same box as large ones and I charge no fees for extra packaging or “handling.” If the total weight makes the USPS charge more, then I do pass that along to you, but if the mail software charges something outrageous, I refund the difference. I typically choose to use USPS Ground Advantage but if I think it’s worth it, I’ll list is as Priority; you can always ask that I adjust the invoice. The USPS has told me 3 times that “we don’t have a ‘fragile class’ anymore, perhaps better, than the average bear. Sorry, no returns. And, please, if you send an offer on something – say I’m asking $24.95 and you offer $9, assume your offer will be rejected. Here's a note about my bead collection – I’m old and have been collecting since my gram gave me a necklace of “pop beads” when I was 12. I’ll be listing all of my collection, keeping back a few to put in a necklace I can wear. Some of my beads date back to 20,000 BCE. My documentation is referenced from my learning from archaeologists and anthropologists, not bead traders. I’m not yet selling my reference library, but will list a few old books from time to time. Holding antique beads makes me think of their meaning as talismans, religious protection, small works of art, for use as money, the beads’ origins, and the people who held them before me. Beads, defined by scientists as an item having perforations such that it may be strung, have arguably served as the first currency, were the first form of body adornment (tattoo historians may disagree), were and still are a form of talisman, and were and are still symbols of faith. If you missed out on a listing and want to see if I have others not yet listed, send a message through eBay and I'll list what you want if I have them. I can’t do side deals off eBay.
