Late Period, ca. 664–332 BC (Modern Restringing)

At the front are two strands of long tubular beads in turquoise and light blue, separated by groups of small disc beads. These join a single strand of small annular (ring) beads at the back, in shades of grey-green, buff, brown, black and red. Faience beads like these were mass-produced in Egypt. Many come from the bead nets laid over mummies, and others from necklaces and collars worn in life and placed in burials. The beads are weathered, with uneven surviving glaze, some bright blue patches, light encrustation and small chips.The stringing and secure clasp are modern.

Size: 16 inches (40.6 cm) L.
