i'm writing something for a deadline (which will be a bit late) but i have this bead necklace of rather amazing wafer-thin banded agate slivers and i guess they resemble ancient stone beads but where from? the originals feel like they must have been middle east-ish, as these have slightly rounded edges are they more likely to be a sophisticated indian product, or could be very recent chinese as they can do almost everything???
thanks in advance for any assistance...

Might be Chinese

They are quite similar in quality as some new ones I bought in China. The shape is somewhat different from these, but I don't doubt the Chinese are capable of making these.

I am almost positive these are new to newer Chinese production. Suzi bought some like these a few years ago for so little we could not figure out how they can make things like this and then nearly give it away.

All my best ...... Danny
