Rare Pre-Columbian Bright Green 7 Piece Lot Jade Figural Tapir and Beads

  

Small Round 11mm X 7mm. Small Round 11mm x 6mm.

This lot of Natural Jade Beads was collected in the early 1900's in Mexico. The hand cut holes are conical and typical of hand shaped Mayan beads. Close examination with a 10x loupe shows original mineral stains and deposits. The colors are natural and typical of very fine early jade found in Tabasco and Yucatán regions of Mexico.

The Dumbarton Oaks Convention of Olmec Jades published an article stating that in the early 1800's the Olmec people reproduced certain carvings. The jadite for those carvings was of a different color than this because the mine used for this jade had been depleted at a much earlier time. This Pre-Columbian Jade is from a private collection in Mexico City that has been authenticated. If you require a formal certificate of authenticity please advise us.
