I have said for years that when making beads there is roughly 80% waste this bead had 83 % waste. Needless to say if you start our with expensive material you loose plenty in just the cutting.

Bead made of Polar Jade "Nephrite".
FINISHED BEAD SIZE 2.11 inch 53.5 mm long .48 inch 12.1 mm in diameter

All my best ...... Danny
