The listing, 1840-70 A Pair Cobalt Blue Large Rare American Glass Beads/Curtain Pulls from the Civil War Era has ended.
Cobalt Blue Glass the pair pictured is what you receive.
Early large heavy wound glass American hand made beads. The sizes are very variable ranging from about an inch to over and inch and a quarter. They are glass that was worked on an iron rod. then twisted for the decorative curves on them.These have the iron residue up the entire opening which was caused by rods used from about 1840 to 1870. These handmade glass objects were sold as beads and as curtain pulls, and sold by the peck. They are one of the very earliest forms of American lampwork bead. They light up brilliantly with a lot of light behind them. they are real deal mid 1800s blown glass. This is one of the best finds I have ever had.
