wow! I had no idea that the famous Bodi tree had such big seeds and that they are used for necklaces. Interesting to learn about!

Eva these are smaller beads bigger beads are 15 to 18 mm . Now a days some Chinese dealers booked / buy the entire tree in India and Nepal , as smaller beads has lot of value . Each tree I heard can only produce hand full of smaller beads unlike bigger beads .
