Red beads-coral

Hello

Are these red beads coral? They are cold and hard to touch and quite heavy too.

14-18mm diameter, total weight 119g.

thanks

 

they look it......but I would not expect them to be heavy....so I have my doubts..

 

Really nice! and I'll bet on 'em being Coral.

I have some similar...gotta take a few pics, post 'em here.

Y'know...the larger ones may be glass!

What do y'all have to say?

 

Nepal faux coral, hand made and traditional in Nepali ethnic jewellery. I have a few strings of them.

 

glass to my eyes.

 

I'll have to agree about the glass...viewed with a good loupe, mine become obviously not coral. Sigh.
Lovely, nonetheless...in a rustic manner.

 

Thanks all, they do look like glass through a loupe.
