Neolithic bead trio necklace - 4,000 - 7,000 years old || Sahara Desert || JF1405

JF1405 || Neolithic bead earrings - 4,000 - 7,000 years old || Sahara Desert 

Four-plaited white cord. You can see how the holes were created using a 'bow drill' - a method for grinding and boring holes during the neolithic times.

They still have clay from the Sahara Desert embedded in the cracks of these quartz beads.

I've finished the cord with sliding knots that allow you to adjust the length. Waxed polyester cord that I hand-plait and use on all my necklaces.

Measurements: roughly 15x4mm beads
