Hi, I have been wondering how one can date and origing on these agate beads. I read that most of the stone comes from India, but with different designs for different markets. So how can you tell that yours are from the liao dynasty, for example? Just been in a museum, and the agate beads from different times and different places seem so similar to me. Here's some I bought in Iran. Copyright 2024
