这种珠子西方学者一般认为原产地是古代的缅甸 但是它的流传却都在中亚 西藏等地 老外认为同属天珠工艺 可能都源于古代印度和西亚的蚀花玛瑙 有很多专业文章 但是都是流传品 出土证据很难找
Original pumtek beads were made in Burma (now Myanmar) from opalized palm wood. They are rare and valuable, having been made more than a thousand years ago. In the 1920s, the original beads were no longer being found at sites of ruins, and new ones began to be made from fossilized (not opalized) wood.
注意老外提到了 古代产品和1920年代后的仿品在材质上的区别
