<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Toba, post: 426970, member: 9023&quot;]Okay, what the heck, I&#039;ll post these too. Same Indonesian trip to Kalimantan. I&#039;ve been told these are melon beads from China, Qing dynasty, correct me if I&#039;m wrong. They were purchased in Samarinda, a coastal town, in a shop that had an amazing amount of Dayak art and Chinese ceramics, which I couldn&#039;t fathom until I was told the porcelain was from shipwrecks. The beads were on two strands, the larger ones and the smaller, brighter looking ones. So... anyone know if these are indeed Qing era beads? Any info would be appreciated. Wish I could travel back in time, I would have bought a few plates too. At the time, my backpack was pretty full.[ATTACH=full]149463[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]149464[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
