I have been registered for few years, but I am not knowledgeable enough to participate in your discussions. Today I need your help with a bead ID: I purchased it 10 years ago, size 6,8 cm x 5,6 cm, hole dia 1,2 cm, I purchased as is, didn't even clean it. The blue green end may be glued, while the other fissures and cracks don't seem to be really broken apart
