Looking for Magatama (Yin Yang Comma shaped) beads

AngryPhile 21 years ago

Help! I have been looking all over for "real" magatama beads and can only find them on Japanese/Chinese/Korean websites. The beads I am looking for are large comma shaped beads (not the tiny drop seed bead). They same shape as one half of the Ying Yin symbol. Sometimes the magatama is mistaken for a talon, claw, fang, or bean shape. Below are some examples. The original magatama beads were made of green jade, but I'm looking for white one for a Halloween costume. If you guys know where I can them, that would be great! Thanks.

Well of COUSE it is! Silly goose - we could have told you that without you having to ask a question. :-)

Any chance you're located on the East Coast of the US?

Yes, I tried eBay. No luck. "Yin Yang" Magatama beads are very hard to find here in the US, but I think there are sellers in the East, I just can't read their webpages. I also don't think it's a good idea to try to buy something on a webpage I you can't read. ;)

Wow cool! It's not what I was looking for, but the white claw 18mm may work anyway. Thanks for the website link. :D

Ah, further south. I was going to say if you're up here in the northeast, Bead Fest is this weekend.

Tell you what, *if* I see any, I'll get the vendor information for you. How's that?
