Description: | an incomplete blue glass bead. The bead has broken in half down the length. The bead appears it would have been cylindrical in shape, with flat top and bottom. The bead has an opaque blue glass on the outside, then a 2.5mm band of clear blue glass inside this, and then the center of the bead is again the opaque blue glass. This means that the top and bottom of the bead have a target pattern in the different glasses, with the circular hole in the center. The break in the bead looks as though it could be recent, as the edges are sharp. Beads are difficult to date, and it could be Roman through to Modern.11.19mm L x 8.26mm W x 6.42mm T 3.90g
