MARBLE OF IRELAND
Ireland has historically been divided into four provinces, the origin of these provinces can be traced to the territories of the great Irish families, O�Neill-Ulster,O�Brien-Munster, O�Connor-Connaught and Mac Murraigh-Kavanagh-Leinster.
Each Province also has it�s own distinctive marble, Connemara green marble from West Connaught is probably the best known followed by Kilkenny black from Leinster, the lesser known red marble from Cork-Munster and the white marble from Derry-Ulster have their own character and natural beauty.
Since 1950 �Connemara Marble By Gerard� have specialised in the manufacture of hand-carved souvenirs and jewellery from Connemara marble We now bring you products in all four marbles as a true representation of the entire island of Ireland.

I am listing the contents of a loose bead display I had in my craft shop in Wesport Co. Mayo, this display was unique. I've been asked for smaller quantities of beads so I decided this may be the way to go, the prices on the packets are in euro but I am going to list the same price in dollars therefore giving you a 10% approx. reduction.The sizes and quantities are approx. and I will be listing many sizes and varieties and marbles of the 4 provinces, Cork red, Ulster white, Kilkenny black and Connemara marble.Some of these beads will be already discontinued and will not be repeated.
This listing is for 1 packet of approx. 4 cabs. The size is approx. 18x13mm
