*FACT*

 This is NOT natural color agate.  Special quality agate is selected to dye like the black agate.  But the agate we pick has layers of solid, un-penetrate-able.  It leaves the effect of "zebra" banding.


*NOTICE*

 Due to the nature of the layered agate material, there are more cracks in the stone.


*Magical Power*

They are also called "Ten Beads" (Sky Beads) or "Tzi Beads" (Eye Beads).  Something from the sky to Watch / Protect the wearing.  This is famous from Tibet.


*ODD BALLS*

 These are rather different items.  Not something you see everyday.


*My Opinion*

The real Tibetan Tzi / Ten Beads are very very expensive (thousands US$ dollars a bead).  They are used by Tibetan monks hundreds years ago.
