An impressive collection of 56 pieces of volcanic rock from Papua New Guinea have been turned into an assortment of attractive Lava stone beads ranging between 12-35mm in size.
Lava Stone is essentially a volcanic rock that has been solidified by molten lava - formed through natural conditions of intense pressure and extreme heat during an eruption.
Seizing on the monetary opportunity, artisans take the raw stone (also known as Basalt Rock) to create beads and pendants to meet the thirsty demand for these popular porous gemstones.
Solidified Lava Stone will make an exceptional addition to any bead collection.
It’s always nice to have a selection of semi-precious beads on hand to use when creating jewellery – such as a lovely pair of earrings, a bracelet or necklace dangle or pendant, or even as a keyring feature.
