NOT! :^D I knew they weren't precious or anything, I just love the colors. I'm happy to get a few pieces of turquoise and coral, some silver beads and heishi out of them. I had no idea they were marketing as pre-Columbian, or from Peru. I always assumed they were vaguely Hawaian, hence the puka reference. I remember they were popular in the 70's, so that definitely fits! I'll take these apart at some point and reuse the components in other designs. I'll send the abalone heart to my daughter, who will think it's amazingly cool. :^) Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
