RARE! HUGE Hand Carved Braided Knot BONE BEAD!
This if for ONE (1) hand carved bone bead. The hand carving on this bead is exquisite!
NOTE: Your bead will be selected from those imaged.
The material comes from domestic cow or buffalo bone; both are used as draft animals (for example, to plow muddy rice paddies) and are consumed as food. They are highly valued and are not dispatched only for their horns or bones; these have an incredibly small value compared with that of a living animal. Water buffalo and Ox bone are obtained after death, and since the cultures from which they are attained believe in utilizing the whole animal, nothing goes to waste, and thus the animal is honored more fully.
NOTE: Images do not reflect number and size. Please see detail and table for information.
Quantity: 1 bead
Material Type: Bone (Domestic Water Buffalo - Bubalus bubalis)
Size: 19mm to 20mm
Color: Cream
Legend: The hand carving is exquisite!
Origin: China
