Description: Up for your consideration is this antique African Kiffa bead from Mauritania. It is a rare find for collectors of unique items. The multi-color design of this single glass bead make it a standout piece. Handmade in Mauritania, this fancy style bead is a testament to the skill and creativity of Mauritanian women artisans, a skill that unfortunately died out many decades ago. The bead's origin and country of manufacture are reflected in its intricate details and beautiful design. This item belongs in the Collectibles category and is perfect for bead enthusiasts looking for a one-of-a-kind addition to their collection. This particular bead is off-round in shape, and measures appropriately 10mm long, by 14 wide. There is a chip on the side that is visible in the photos. This is not uncommon for antique Kiffa beads, and luckily this bead has not been “repaired” by having been painted! Please feel free to ask any questions you might have, and be sure to check out my other GREAT items!
