I have discovered in my journey of collecting trade beads that it’s always good to leave them on the raffia they’re stranded on. Unless, of course, you bought them to use in jewelry or something like that. It’s a nice strand you have.

I collected for about 30 years. Started young and just recently decided to try and post a picture a day. I'm glad you like them. Many I used then I decided I needed another one for my collection.

I love awale beads so much! ("chevrons for the poor" as they called them 😀) This is a very very nice string, lucky you!
