AUTHENTIC Small Venetian Six Layer Chevrons (Late-1800’s) African Trade Beads For Sale

A whole lot of FAKE, SMALL Venetian SIX LAYER chevrons are popping up on and Etsy these days, and neither platform is interested in doing anything about it. So…buyer beware!!

A hint: these authentic Venetian chevrons NEVER COME FROM THAILAND OR INDIA. The last 3 pictures are of fake chevrons being sold out of Thailand. Venetian chevrons are layered while the ends of fake Indian or Thai chevrons are PAINTED ON.

Another hint: authentic Venetian chevrons are freakin EXPENSIVE while the Thai fakes are DIRT CHEAP! Please don’t buy a strand of fake Venetian chevrons for $50!

I’m ever so glad to combine shipping on multiple items! Go ahead and click Buy It Now but RESIST ’s suggestion that you COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE BY PAYING for it right away. Just go on to the next item and when you’re finished I will send you an invoice that combines the shipping into one payment.
