The carved carnelian has a nice patina and good bead hole wear. From the 'lac' residue on one end I assume that it had been set into something previously. Probably of Indian origin, but I have no idea about the age or exact provenance.
The small, tri-colored one is interesting in that it has asymmetrical banding, yet it doesn't appear to have been broken.
If anyone recognizes either of them, any information would be appreciated.
