2 Antique Yemeni, Banded Sulemani Agate Beads | Natural Untreated Quartz | Tabular Barrel, 32-34mm
$85.00
Bring a timeless, talismanic warmth into your jewelry designs or collection with this banded sulemani agate bead. 2 antique yemeni beads like these are prized for their tabular barrel silhouette and the way their parallel white bands read against rich brown and honey tones. Expertly cut from natural untreated quartz, each piece displays deep chocolate, warm honey, and translucent carnelian hues paired with a smooth glossy patina and authentic micro-wear that speaks to age and history.
• Material: 100% natural, untreated Yemeni agate (banded/sulemani quartz), genuine antique piece.
• Size: one bead measures approximately 34 mm and the other approximately 32 mm in length; see pictures for exact proportions and scale.
• Condition: beautiful antique condition with a smooth glossy patina and minor surface characteristics consistent with age and historical handling.
• Design notes: tabular barrel shape with distinct parallel white bands ("silk bands"); ideal focal beads for heirloom jewelry, protection amulets, or an ethnographic bead collection.
Please note: photos show the exact items you will receive; colors and translucency vary slightly with lighting and screen settings. These beads are sold as authentic, untreated specimens and are presented as-found, with surface micro-wear and patina that add to their character rather than detract from value.
• All orders shipped to the United States are prepaid with tariffs included; buyers do not have to pay any additional tariff fees upon delivery.
