Ancient Neolithic Banded Agate & Quartzite Beads, ca. 8000-5000 BCE

Item Details

Description

This assemblage of Neolithic beads, circa 8000-5000 BCE, showcases the early human endeavor into adornment and artistry. Each bead, measuring between 15-20mm, is skillfully shaped from banded agate and quartzite, materials chosen for their natural beauty and durability. The lot of five beads reflects the ingenuity of Neolithic craftspeople and their understanding of the materials at hand. The subtle patterns on the agate and the milky translucence of the quartzite offer a glimpse into the aesthetic preferences of our distant ancestors.
