Detail & Features
Long, skinny and speckled, these hairpipe beads are hand-carved in India from buffalo bone, buffed smooth, then hand-dyed. They come as a grab bag, so you get a mix of lengths and colors, and no two bags are exactly alike.
✨The Magic is in the Details✨
Approx. Length: 12-24mm
Approx. Diameter: 4-7mm

Expect mustard, terracotta, sage, teal, navy and hot pink, each one flecked for a weathered, artisan look.
Their long tube shape is perfect for fringe, statement necklaces and bold earrings. Pair them with leather cord for a Southwestern feel, or mix them with brighter beads for something more eclectic.

Curious to know about the source of the bone?
In India and Nepal, not much is wasted. So instead of just eating the meat of an animal, every part of the animal is used: bones for things like beads, hides/hair for clothing and accessories and talismans, and the meat is consumed.
The making of these beads and pendants provides a livelihood for families in remote villages in Nepal and India, which we are honored to support and share with you.
