Ethnic Design Collection Reto Zehnder

Antique real amber beads sourced from West Africa. These beads float in salted water and smell pine by burning with hot needle, both sign of real amber. To certify as real Baltic amber further tests are needed.

Old amber beads such as these have a rich history of trade & production dates to a century or more ago.

Ten large copal beads with different colours, collected in West Africa in the 1970th.
