Salmon colored naturally striped carnelian bead. It is unusual to find a bead with such perfect natural stripes. The bead has very fine fissures that occur from age and being buried for long periods. The fissures show up more in the photos and are not so visible in normal light. There is an ancient hole drilled in the bead for wearing. Size: H. 1.4cm. W. 1cm.
