Name That Rock

About this design:

Have had these little stones for ages,and decided to give them a home.
They remind me of cinnamon jelly beans. I have no idea what they are.
I'm guessing dyed Agate or Jasper?

Components:

SP connectors,head pins,and antiqued SP wires from Lima,and mystery stone.

Very nice!! Love the color! Do you think they are dyed? It is hard to tell the color on the computer but I have some rhodonite those beads match…..

Thanks,Chicks. Pretty sure they’re dyed. I think they must be Jasper,or Agate? I’m gifting these to my dear Bff. She like earrings that make “noise.” I test drove them,and the do rattle a bit..LOL

When in doubt call them jasper or agate. The odds are it is one or the other….unless it’s quartz……

Love the jelly bean shapes.
