Carved red bead with gold interior | |||||

These are not bright red beads, or even "cherry amber," but more of a rosewood color. And I still suspect they are golden inside, and that the surface has been colored somehow.
The small bead was not necessarily produced by the same workshop that produced the large beads, of course. The surface color just seems to me to be identical.
I mention all this because the cut of these beads - the reverse triangles, wavy edge - appears the same as the beads Pascal has posted. They're definitely phenolic resin.
