ANCIENT BEADS w/inlaid coral

By sillyfilly454, 19 November, 2010
Description

A few of the small coral pieces have come out- they are completely round and are set down into the body of the bead themselves. I have 2 of the coral pieces but did not want to attempt resetting them myself. I would estimate the coral to be 90% intact.
