Extremely rare ancient neolithic black stone beads from West Africa. Beads measure ca. 43x20x12mm and 33x28x15mm, weight for both is ca. 40 gram. I aquired these bead probably more than twenty years ago together with some ancient green amazonite beads. These beads here are similar in shape but they are black. Could be amazonite or any other hardstone. One bead is a large disc bead, the other is a tooth shaped bead. Both show small damages and signs of antiquity. Only these two black beads
