...that makes these beads "Paiwan."

Then tell us, what makes them "Paiwan"? If the beads aren't "Paiwan" and the "construction" doesn't make them "Paiwan", what makes them "Paiwan"?

Here's what y'all can do: String up anything as a necklace or anything else. Now this won't be "beadwork", but it will be what you are. Anyone wanna see my "hillbilly" beads? Of course, hillbillies didn't make the beads and the construction doesn't make them hillbilly beads either, but they're still hillbilly beads. Paradise for the eBay aficionado!
