[QUOTE="tie.dye.cat, post: 291516, member: 152"]I'm just posting this in case anyone else comes across some Bogwood and doesn't know what they are looking at. I was going through my SA jewerly the other day, picked this up and just about tossed it into the junk jewelry box, but something about the glass beads caught my eye. You can see how they are elongated on each end; I suppose from being handblown. I started researching the black beads and found they were bogwood. I don't find the necklace attractive, but interesting to think of the history behind who made it and who may have worn it. Some bogwood necklaces go for a decent price, but I think this one is destined to be sold for parts, if even that.
