Beautiful, big, cylinder shaped beads, handcarved from yak bone. The bone has been completely hollowed out on the inside, after which a cap has been glued to both ends (with of course a small hole for the thread).
The decoration of these beads show carvings of the well-known symbol of the Endless Knot (one of the Tibetan Buddhist Eight Auspicious Symbols) and some Chinese markings for prosperity and some small painted flowers.
These beads have been made in Tibet and are from vintage origin, so they might have some minor damages and imperfections. These beads are all handmade, so naturally some differences in appearance may occur.
A beautiful item for all your personal crafting projects. Size; approximately 55 millimeters long and 25 millimeters diameter. Weight; 25 grams.
Sold per piece. We will handpick one at random for you.
