Agate Beads Giraffe Style and other Agate Eye Beads Vintage Hand Carved. Kate Drew-Wilkinson

I use the round ones to make "Giraffe " necklaces and earrings. They are stone, painted with a certain herb and then heated, which results in the design. The larger beads have had the same treatment to make the eyes. I]ve put some 20 gauge Silver wire through so you can see how well centered they are.
