Featured Hediao carved pits Chinese Mala bracelet.

It just arrived!
French Ebay buy for 25€
Just has a missing part on the center Buddha's bead, didn't appear on the only 3 pics of the listing nor described in the 9 words description

3 different carving decors in the 9 beads (each 2.5cm or 1")
2 personnages
4 blooming flowers
3 birds in vines1


@Any Jewelry detailed pics!

 

Maybe because I’ve no experience but I can’t see the missing piece? It’s so pretty! This is fruit pits?!

 

Think it is the hole in the fourth lump up (second pic) from the bottom.

 

The lack is in second pic, center bead above the dangles
Yes, fruit pits!

 

'bsolutely!

 

I really didn’t see it. Either way it’s gorgeous! Would never imagine you could make beads from fruit pits!

It looks lovely.

 

suh-weet!

(sorry about the missing bit. )

 

Wow never saw that before, thanks for showing it!

 

@Any Jewelry is going to be drooling all over her keyboard when she sees this post.

Beautiful piece!!

 

Soooo beautiful.

 

Score! Peaches are good luck/prosperity/something like that in Chinese mythology and carving the pits is traditional. I'd say 25 Euro was a screaming steal if those are hand carved. I wouldn't want to do all that work for 25 Euro!

 

super delicious..........

 

Thanks all for your appreciations and sweeeet comments on my.... pits!

@evelyb30, yes a steal! It happens now and then on Ebay France, but scarcely
because lot of junk, or a contratio, stratospheric prices

 

It really is stunning, kyra, as is the price, you lucky girl (I keep saying that, don't I).

I know just the person who can repair that, with some woodfiller or bits and bobs lying around the house. @kyratango ! Wait a minute, that is you!

The Chinese word for peach sounds the same as the word for escape. So peach pits protect against evil, they make you escape from evil.

 

Haha, AJ !

The person in question is considering the use of hardened chewing-gum
Joking, of course! I'm not sure if I'll try any kyratisation on it

May you be listened and may them keep the evil out of me!

 

Komo!
