these came from a mixed strand sourced in Mali. I thought the black bead in the center with aventurine striped banding was unusual. The size is 14mm in length, 15.7mm in diameter.

Very unusual, Judy. I really like the ghostly murrine insets too.

Yes, it's very different! To me, the eyes look like applied trails (that landed deliberately in circular globs for round decorations) of clear and white latticino.

Not pretending to know the correct terms, just trying to express a thought - thanks for understanding!
