Can you help me identify this stone?
I bought a Mixed Lot of beads. Most were in their proper level, quartz, amethyst, aventurine, etc. However, the lot was a large red stone. I've never seen anything like it and am having trouble identifying it. The closest I can come to is that instead of coral, but I'm still very safe. It is about an inch by one inch and has a very strong weight to it. What are your views? Links to similar examples mine would be a great help. Http: / / tinypic.com / usermedia.php?

These are probably something called "cinnabar" paint accounts. I believe that in ancient China, these beads were made by mixing powdered cinnabar with lacquer. Cinnabar is the principal ore of mercury, and as such is toxic. In modern accounts, the material has probably been replaced by plastic dyed. They must be easily scratched with a steel object (pin, pin, etc) anyway. On the other hand, if the grain is very hard, can be glazed ceramics.
