Antique Turkmen Brass Beads

Antique Turkmen beads handcrafted from thin brass sheet. Every piece features a naturally aged patina, worn areas, dents and other signs of long use that emphasise its authentic ethnic character.

The hollow body consists of two joined hemispheres. Bands of twisted wire decorate the central seam, while openings at both ends allow the bead to be threaded onto leather cord, string or a thicker chain.

These old beads can be used to create raw tribal necklaces, bracelets, pendants and original jewellery inspired by the cultures of Central Asia. Their distinctive form also makes them suitable as a central element in a larger composition.

Each bead varies in shape, brass colour, ornamentation and condition. Some pieces may feature heavier dents, missing fragments or irregular openings. The product is sold individually and selected at random.
