This is my hand holding a dark red jade komboloi that I made. 23 beads + 2 +5 stainless steel for 30 count. the water in the background is the Little Etobicoke Creek.

When I asked my bead collection for advice, it just rolled its eyes and said, “Bead it!”🤪🤙📿

A nice red jade komboloi set I put together - it's nice and light weight, and handles very well.📿
