  • Superb examples of my absolutely, all-time favorite beads in all the world.  Do you still have them, Kathleen?  I have a small box full, and so far, I am hanging on, but one day, I will list them for sale, too. I have to figure out how best to display them.  Just now, most of them are simply in a pile or on old strings.

    Very beautiful stones.

    How can the age be determined?
