Vintage strand from the late 80's - a Tucson find. This is not like the strands you see today - great shimmering copper colors - this strand has larger chips - alot are pretty square - great for accent beads. This strand is 34" and weighs 4oz so shipping will be tight for me. Their strung on thread so the hole isn't huge. I have used them with head and eye pins when making jewelry. Not quite sure I captured the beauty of this strand.
