Hebron Cousins Yellow Trade Beads

The Raffia these beads are strung on is broken.  Richly textured Hebron beads in a warm, earthy yellow color, featuring an organic surface and distinctive handmade character. These beads have a beautifully irregular texture that gives each one a unique appearance, with subtle variations in color, shape, and surface detail throughout. Often associated with traditional beadmaking in the Hebron region, these beads are appreciated for their rustic character and tactile surfaces. Their earthy yellow tones make them particularly versatile for jewelry designs, beadwork, collecting, and other creative applications. These beads are considered "cousins" of the richly textured Hebron beads, sharing a similar visual and tactile character while differing in composition. They are not made from sea salt glass. The individual beads may display natural variations and small irregularities consistent with their handcrafted appearance. The combination of warm color, pronounced texture, and individual variation gives these beads a distinctive presence, whether used as a strand, incorporated into a larger jewelry design, or collected as examples of traditional beadmaking. This strand is not intended to be a ready-to-wear necklace. Although the strand can be worn "as is," the string holding it together is not durable and may break with use. For this reason, we recommend that you restring the beads before wearing them. Strand Length: 16 inches (including string/raffia) Bead Size: 12-13 mm diameter.
