We should appreciate the skill and precision involved in accurately
spacing ten or stripes with dry powder inside a mold. As many as
twenty stripes have been observed on some specimens (see No. 3).
Some are "ne-aki" (twisted), an effect achieved while the beads are still
hot in the molds. This string, on cotton, would be typical regalia.
remind us of certain layered drawn beads (other than chevrons) that the
Krobos call "obuo-so" (top of the stone)
is notable, as is the carefully biased ends.
