Large Old Double-Dome Afghan Tribal Bead with tube ends. Whipped wire design around the center circumference. Handcrafted in the mid 1900's of sturdy metal. 

Classic Beads like this were created by fusing 2 dome-shaped pieces together to form an oval, then covering the joined area around the middle with intricate metalwork, such as shown here. Very classic Old Afghan bead with warm age patina.
