Lovely central bead. What is the dark substance in the middle? some resin? And what are the other beads?Wood? Stone? Other?
yes , it is actualy a touareg bead, they have some necklaces with 5 beads like this and 2 cylinder form.
i order only the beads and use them the way i like.in the middle of the bead is akacia wood with silver. the same wood onthe rest of photos by pendents. worked in sandwish technik. all handmade.
