excellent quality. Quick service. Will definitely order again. Need another strand when next in stock

Love these beads they are absolute quality. I have made 5 bracelets with the strand I bought.

These are coated in WAX! I bough them for the absorbent property of lava rock (for use with essential oils), to regain that absorbent property I had to boil them several times to get all the wax off. Other wise they are fine really, but considering what many people buy lava rock beads for this should have been disclosed!

Initially I gave them 5 stars but the seller sent 6 mm instead of 8 mm beads. Unfortunately I checked a month after receiving the beads. Otherwise, I would have contacted the seller right away. Because I do not know if the seller would have responded well, I am taking only one star.About the beads, they look natural and earthy. I like the fact that they are made of volcanic rock so if one wants to submerge them in oils, they will pick up the smell. So one would have a perfumed necklace.Thus, I recommend the lava beads because of their quality and beauty. But I would also recommend to check the size as soon as you get the beads.

Has a weird wax feel to them. I contacted the seller to return, but it would cost more to ship it back than the item initially cost.

I love them! I make jewelry (hobbyist, not professional) but have always been reluctant to buy beads online as I cannot see or touch them. I am beyond thrilled with the lava beads. They even have microscopic sparkles to them! They have great texture for meditating and are perfect for essential oils. I will buy again!

I bought these beads to use as paint mixers in my Vallejo paint bottles and they have work beautifully. Rattling them around helps to stir up the pigment in the paint and give a nice ever mixture. I tested these beads in salt water for 3 days before giving them the go ahead for my paint bottles, and I haven't had any issues since. I'd definitely recommend them if that's the route you're looking to go
