Hello everyone.

I was wondering if anyone could help me locate a supplier for the black beads used in the necklace on this page : http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=9822684 [tip: clicking on the picture gives a high resolution version for a close-up on the necklace]

Or if anyone can name the shape since I didn't really know what keywords to google '<img'>

Thanks for your time,
Vicky.

I would tend to call them spear-shaped beads as well.
They might be made of ebony or other similar wood.

Have you tried asking the etsy vendor?  Many etsy vendors are surprisingly nice about sharing information.

We've had stretchy bracelets made of similar beads, but they normally have 2 holes.  And we only have them at our bead shows, not in our catalog.  We can't get the same thing each time, so they don't have stock #'s and aren't online. Check this map or text listing to see if we'll be near you some time soon.  The bracelets are great for breaking apart and using the beads in other pieces.
