Unfortunately I was overbid with this strand but I bought another directly. So waiting for the post to deliver I will then show the beads and take one apart, prick it with hot needles, let it float (hopefully!) and maybe we can see what they are made of. Anyhow, I like there very crude look of these beads! And - if Jamey is right with his ingredients, I can always season my salad with bits and pieces of a bead. LOL

Until postman's knock at my door!
