It is impossible to determine the country of origin by eye. The beads themselves are difficult, but you can try if you try, but not all tips are applicable in reality. Coral-dyed bone product produces a brighter tone at the drilling site. A plastic fake can be distinguished by touching it with a hot needle or pin: a black dot forms at the point of contact, an unpleasant odor is felt. In hot weather, such jewelry can leave traces of paint on the body, and if you lower it into water, the color o ... Farther...

I think the attitude of the local customs will be questionable: why, for what purpose? It will definitely grab their attention. Not to mention that our control may be even more suspect. After all, they have the right not to miss without explanation. So they will be detained "until clarification", for several hours Farther...
