bone beads and bone bead info by Russy

[larson1951]

here are some reg bone beads made from mostly bird bones
also in this frame that Russy made from our collection he shows the raw stock and how the beads were cut, then snapped off , then polished
we have been fortunate enough to find the spent part of the bone with sometimes the last bead still on the core or end of the bone stock
i think finding the end of a piece (like the six or so in this frame) is in a way kinda cool as it shows the manufacturing process
hope you like

Great job to you and Russy, educational displays are by far my favorite.

Nice display.

I agree with Neanderthal, I like displays that offer an educational theme.
