If this is a Burmese 400bc bead the drinks are on you in Kech ! ;-)
Frankie, definitely bring this one along with you. Interesting websites Sarah posted on ancient beads.
Whaaaaah! But I don`t want to sell it.......!
Bead in question is a bit weathered and pitted. Feels less dense than the other agate. The holes are not worn but the exterior angles are a bit. It doesn`t have the circular wear patterns of some suleiman agate but it does have crackled grid patterned wear as some of the ones on the Garuda site do.
Am bringing the whole thing.
