Bracelet with Vintage Aurora Beads, Jade-Colored Roman Glass, Amber, Carnelian, Coral, Beaded Brass, and Afghan Charms & Bells

This bracelet is crafted by linking together vintage aurora beads, jade-colored Roman glass, amber, carnelian, coral, small beaded brass elements, and Afghan charms and bells. The faceted beads are vintage pieces from the Czech Republic and France, featuring a subtle, aurora-like sheen on their surface that catches the light from every angle. Unlike modern aurora finishes which can appear overtly dazzling, these vintage beads possess a much softer luminescence, sometimes appearing almost clear at first glance. While these beads are in good condition, some may show minor scratches or slight wear on the aurora finish. Smaller aurora beads are also interspersed throughout. (Size of aurora beads: approx. 0.7cm height, 0.7cm width - larger pieces) The elongated, jade-colored beads are Roman glass, dating back to the Roman Empire (27 BCE - 395 CE). The tubular pieces, derived from what were once bangle bracelets, have a slight curve. As they are ancient artifacts, minor chips may be present, but they do not affect their wearability. The semi-transparent, oval beads are amber, showcasing a lustrous and beautiful quality. Carnelian beads, featuring intricate cuts, are clustered like ripe fruit. Elongated, salmon-orange coral pieces add a delicate touch. The small, beaded elements are brass beads crafted by the Benin people of Africa. The rectangular, faceted brass beads were once part of antique Venetian bead strands. The pretzel-shaped charms are old Afghan pieces, and the bells are from the Kuchi tribe. Both were used as decorative elements and are also vintage items. The clasp is a toggle featuring a melted, fluid design. This bracelet offers a playful color palette while allowing you to enjoy the unique character of ancient glass.
