Exceptional strand with rare antique Faturan Amber Beads from Zanzibar. Beads measure in diameter between ca. 26-21mm, weight is ca. 108 gram. Mix of colors from bright orange to dark red. Clear signs of antiquity with various small damages. I found these beads about twenty years ago in Zanzibar, most likely made first half of 20th Ct.
