Extraordinary strand of barrel shaped chevron beads 05.01.1512

A unique strand of extra large barrel-shaped chevron beads. This is our masterpiece among the chevron beads. It is extremely rare to find chevron beads of this size. In no reference book, nor on the internet I found such chevron beads. Out of the 28 beads two have some cracks (repaired) and few other have some edge chips.
