sigi, my question, too. Who makes these beads, and why wear them? I'm sorry to be ignorant. I remember something about bone prayer beads from...where was it? Near Tibet. There was a class of people in LA who were into importing such things, and I found them, generally, to be a little shadowy in nature. Oh yes, and the crazy crystal skull people, too. Something unwholesome about avarice over these items that made me uneasy. Anyways, whose bones?
I did have a string of skull beads made from cow bone. Used to. Actually still have bone beads, animal bone.
