Description
- These beads are priced and sold by the set of 3
- Guatemalan greenstone large rounded beads about 20mm diameter
- Holes are at least 2mm
- Replicas of ancient Maya jade beads, similar to those Frida Kahlo like to wear in her self-portraits.
- Just like the original Maya beads, some of these are a little irregular or have marks left by the carving tools. They are hand-made.
- Guatemalan Greenstone is a form of Serpentine, and among a class of green stones, referred to as "cultural jades" by archeologists, because the Maya used them interchangeably with real jade, apparently valuing all of these stones equally.
