Although Kashmiri beads & Lac beads are similar in appearance but they are very different when it comes to composition. Kashmiri beads are made from a mix of marble powder and manufactured resin (polymer clay) while the resin used in Lac beads is from a natural source.
Also known as, “Bollywood” beads, Kashmiri beads are hand decorated and use a variety of materials for embellishment such as mirror chips, seed beads, silver plating and rhinestones.
What this all adds up to…an attention-grabbing work of art as unique and original as the people who fall in love with them.
