Strands of 20 carved bone beads 20mm long x 9mm diameter
I can see these working well with other organics (bone, horn, shell, antler, etc) and brass or silver, matte finish glass, Batik bone and more...
In India they soak bone in tea to "antique" it. In China they seem to use smoke, which often leaves a strong smell, so I've generally avoided these types of beads regardless of how attractive they are.
As time goes by, however, the smell diminishes so I've started looking at them again. These have just a trace of smoky odor left -- if I didn't mention it, most people wouldn't notice, but I'm all about full disclosure.
