Ojime

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Small, rounded bead with a white string threaded through a small hole at the top. The bead is primarily dark brown and gray with a design that appears to be a landscape with trees and possibly a bird in flight. The top of the bead has two small red spots on either side of the hole. The bead sits on a light gray surface with a white background. The bead is likely an Ojime by an unknown artist.
