Rare strand with large massive vintage Amazonite Beads from Pakistan. Strand is ca. 30cm long, beads range from ca. 22x18mm down to ca. 17x10mm, graduated strand. I aquired these beads around 2004 in Thailand from an afghani trader who mentioned that these beads originate from Pakistan. I have not seen any similar beads since then. Most likely made between ca. 1950-2000.
