Ancient Suns

This is a very large and very fine tubular greenstone bead from the area of Mexico that is now the State of Guerrero, or possibly one of the neighboring states. The bead is sculpted from a very hard, forest green stone material, and it has a very fine polish. This is one of the largest beads of its kind that I have ever seen, and it is in superb condition. The white area on one of the stringing hole ends is NOT a repair; it is just a color variation in the stone material. This is a superb collector’s bead.
