At first I thought the circle and dot \"eye\" designs were burned onto the beads, like a brand. Oblates 22x29mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn closer inspection I think drills were used to score the surface and then the grooves were filled with kohl or a similar black pigment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThese beads have multiple holes drilled: from top to bottom, side to side, and right thru the middle, from one flat side to the other. This allows for a variety of creative design options and combos.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLike all older beads these have acquired some dirt, especially on the flat sides where they rubbed against each other when strung. I have not washed these b\/c I didn't want to risk removing the markings. However I have confirmed that the dirt can be wiped off the ends of the beads with a little warm soapy water or oil on a cloth and that it would take more than that to remove the black in the designs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Beadazzled.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50286217527605,"sku":"ORR-156","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/4388\/1301\/files\/ORR-156.jpg?v=1732137712","url":"https:\/\/www.beadazzled.com\/products\/berber-amber-dark-amber-colors-with-eye-designs-2-way-holes-22x29mm","provider":"Beadazzled.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
