When I purchased them, it stated they were gemstones. I can only go by what the seller stated. I'm not an expert in gemstones or beads by any imagination. This is the best answer I can give you. Thanks!
ok that sounds good. I was also wondering since you have some other related items listed if you might have any loose gemstones or pieces of broken and damaged jewelry that I could harvest for stones? If so please let me know and maybe we can agree on a price so you could list it and then send them together with what I am hoping to win of yours
