Here is my lovely ancient chalcedony from 2 years ago. Some say Bactrian, some say Islamic. Whatever their actual age may be, I am satisfied that they are truly old beads. I wear them at least once a week. Strung with 4 high-karat gold beads. I have restrung since to delete the faceted bead toward the front.
Other ancient stone beads I love to wear are banded agates, small graduated ones as well as larger single ones brought from Tibet personally by Bob Brundage (they are hardly to be found there anymore).
New stone beads I enjoy are a few of American turquoise and a nice rhodochrosite pendant.
Maybe there will be time for a couple of new images this weekend.
