<p>[QUOTE="Houseful, post: 395831, member: 1067"]Im at a loss as to what material these beads are made out of. Definitely not wooden. They are 16 inches long, the largest bead is half an inch wide. They are mostly not really spherical, some have gouges in them that don’t look like accidental chips. I’ve only ever had the red branch coral, never any beads, but this feels like coral, doesn’t feel really cold like agate stone. Not sure about the slight banding in some beads either is this often [ATTACH=full]137604[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]137605[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]137607[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]137608[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]137609[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]137610[/ATTACH] occurring in coral?The clasp is cheap and rusting. Any thoughts anyone please? Thanks. Oh, there’s no white in the drill holes, and they are grubby overall, I wasn’t sure how to clean them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
