You can also see these beads in my Plate III, lower left. They do not have specific names, as far as I know. One could ask an interested Tibetan for his/her opinion or knowledge. It is my opinion that some of these beads MAY BE late reproductions. I have seen specimens that are so well-conserved and new-looking, my skeptical side thinks it should be considered that some are reproductions. I own one of these beads, and it's in the photo. JDA.
