Here are a few nice typical Jatim. The seller (a Thai woman) at JOGS insisted they were from Thailand or maybe Burma. I didn't argue beyond suggesting they were from Java in Indonesia. She didn't try to claim they were ancient but was sure of their origin. The prices were relatively reasonable.
I know of several people who buy these beads in Bali or Java and sell them to vendors at Bangkok's Jatujak Market with various stories.
The larger are about 35x38mm
