<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSW, post: 2169316, member: 8708&quot;]Hunting for some beads in my stash to repair another necklace I came across these beads that I obviously acquired and didn&#039;t know what they were made of. Now I&#039;ve learned a little more I see lines and some cross hatching.</p><p>I&#039;m presuming these are the &#039;I&#039; word of which we cannot speak <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie17" alt=":bag:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Obviously complete sale ban in U.K. but I&#039;d like to restring appropriately. Were they traditionally strung with other beads or just on their own? Does this clasp date them?. Bit of plastic screw is loose so I don&#039;t know if that&#039;s original. Largest beads c15mm.</p><p>They are quite discoloured and need a wash. Dare I wash them quickly with a bit of dish soap or will I end up with damaged beads in eternal damnation as the Internet says I will?!.</p><p>Thanks for any help <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]253102[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253103[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253104[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253105[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253106[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253107[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253108[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253109[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]253110[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
