Purchased from a specialty store in Okachimachi, Tokyo three years ago. Pearls have increased in price recently, so I believe this is a very good deal. I've tried several times to make something with them and kept them carefully, but I've given up and decided to declutter. The thread has been cut, but they are unused. Only the largest keshi pearl on the far left (5mm each) has been used, with 4 pieces used, and there are 63 pieces remaining. I haven't counted the others, but I'm selling them in a bulk sale at a bargain price, so please understand. I'm selling these to someone who does handmade crafts or can use them.
