  • Fantastic beads, Frankie! 

  • Thanks Betty. Not that I`m obsessed with A a F beads at all.....!

    ( Quoi.....? Moi....?).

  • Wow, more beautiful Agrab beads! How many of these beads have you collected so far? I say "so far" because I think you are still hunting for more.

  • Where does the word 'mahoganie" fit in, I do not see any wood at least not on the outside.

  • I see little wooden beads with inlaid silver between the big Mauritanian beads.

  • Those are ebony beads x

  • right. Thank you.

  • Yes, of course they`re ebony. Just going a bit dotty in my old age!

  • Thank you Sarah for featuring my Ethiopian,Yemini cuffs.  It is poor lighting on the photo because  I took it tonight instead of with daylight, but the point was to saw the different patterns.   Gr. Ingrid.

  • Frankie, not to worry, something we all have to deal with once in a while.

    Good night. Ingrid.
