This interesting roller bead has hand-carved impressions which come to life pressed into  silly putty or other impressionable material. Look at the amazing carvings! It tells a whole story, which I cannot decipher, but it is highly detailed carving of a mythical winged griffin. Afghan from 1930's-40's, a resin material, maybe bakelite. 21mm long x 12mm diameter with 2mm hole. A collector item, and wearable! A fine replica of an ancient stone bead, quite unique!
