Beads Galore - the Loot!

Here are some of the beads I bought.  I'm not showing all of them because I want to keep some surprises to myself for awhile.  :)

Aren't these cool?  They are Ivory Magnesite.  I'm still questioning the name....how come something so brightly turquoise be called ivory?

These Actinolite stone beads came from Afghanistan!

And who has seen agate look like this??  This is called Etched Agate.
