Original Message:   The French have an expression, "je ne sais quoi"

Which means a certain, hard-to-describe, appealing quality. I am also reminded of the first line of the Tao Te Ching - "The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao". I find it very difficult to put into words how & why certain beads are so mesmerizing. Such beads seem to channel eternal beauty and harmony. I like to think that the makers of such beads have left something of themselves as well as positive karma that flows to the current owner of the bead, and onto all subsequent owners. So I guess I am attaching some metaphysical properties to "beads with character"! Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
