Original Message:   Re: Pema Raka Beads - Old - Imitation - New
July 2019 In 2017 it was determined that the material used for making pema raka (carnelian) beads can be sourced to Yunnan. (Communication from Mark Kenoyer.) So I have put-to-rest my suggestion that the origin of this discrete carnelian may have been Chinese Turkestan (Xinjiang). JDA.
