Rare strand with white-red stone beads from China. Strand is ca. 48cm long, weight is ca. 62 gram and beads are ca. 8x8mm in size. This strand was sold to me as agate, could be some sort of chalcedony agate and beads might be etched. Very special color and design, all beads are white on one end and orange-red on the other end. Some beads have small damages and signs of use but made most likely second part to end of 20th Ct.
