You can either buy:

A short strand of 24 beads varying from 2cm - 5cm in length or

A full strand of beads 98- 100 pieces. Same variation.

The beads can be used as a full graduated length, or can be split up into similar sized points to make earrings or a necklace that is not graduated.

Please see the attached photo of a necklace made up with gold filled beads, carnelian and lapis lazuli.
