  • sizes?

    does the bleached-looking one have a 3-sided cross-section?

  • Yes, Stefany, the one in question is 3 sided, the panels being 11.66mm, 11.09mm and 11.22mm

     Thank you for reminding me that this information was needed.  I have spent a good part of the day and have finally found one site that gathers data and photos from agate hunters here in the America.  I did  see some of their carnelian finds with white banding, but not quite like this bead.  Of course they had not been shaped into beads; they were slices and cabochons.

  • The length is 18.7 mm.  Thanks.
