This fine glass bracelet of small size may have been made for a young girl.
The substrate is opaque red glass, decorated with trails of opaque blue and yellow glass. The triangular cross section is indicative of a late Ottoman period origin (17th to 29th century) in the Eastern Mediterranean region (Spaer 2001:195).
