comments or thoughts anyone? Lynne

Again, sorry about the quality of my photos!!

This strand has some amazing huge beautiful beads, although some are damaged on the end. Still wonderful though.. Lynne

These beads are definitely smaller & in incredible condition, that made me question their age/authenticity, but I do believe these too are legitimate. Would love to hear pros/cons! Thanks, Lynne

Would love to hear some thoughts on the focal bead. I assumed it was not amber, but I truly am not certain what it is. It is enormous! What do you think? Lynne

All the beads on this are so softly worn, from being held and rubbed and loved...Just the way I love my beads. Really special find for me.

Again, apologies for ALL of my photos...From my cellphone!

These were sold as between 10th - 16th century old beads. No closeups yet to share, but each one is absolutely beautiful. I've done no research on these yet, so any knowledge is greatly appreciated! Lynne

Fab indeed. Thanks for showing them.

Hi Lynne,
Thank you for showing us your Pema Raka beads.
Would enjoy seeing more, when you get a chance.
Just Fred

Will definitely post more of my collection in the future. Just need to read up on some previous forum postings to pick out a good camera so I can get some great photos. Any suggestions? Lynne

I have just seen pema raka heaven!!!!! They are perfect!

Your other necklaces too: the Yemen bedouin silver beads,and I personally think it could be amber,but one should feel, weigh and smell it and do the small tests. Love the turquoise. The stone beads have such a nice patina.
What excellent finds !

I agree & must try those tests. The smell test never works for me...although I wish I could smell amber from my beads...Wouldn't that be wonderful! Thanks for your comments, Lynne

Magnifiques ;-)
