Roman glass beads

It is called "Roman glass" because it is a bead made by shaping old glass fragments excavated in Afghanistan, which was a key point on the Silk Road in the Roman era. Over a long period of hundreds of years, light is diffusely reflected on the surface where fine irregularities are formed by reacting with the components in the soil, and it shows a beautiful shine.

Our Roman glass was excavated near Bamiyan and in northern Afghanistan.

Thin fragments of Roman glass beads from Afghanistan are processed and shaped into a disk shape with a hole in the center. The silver glass surface, which has been buried in the soil for a long time, emits a beautiful light.
