What you see is exactly what you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eOn every face of this bead, the eye and the wave are the same line. There is no boundary where one motif ends and the other begins — the cream-white ring of the eye simply unwinds into the curve of the wave, one continuous stroke running across the full width of each face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis is what sets the composition apart from other four-eye beads in this collection. Elsewhere, eye and secondary motif tend to occupy separate registers — paired, flanking, or placed on alternating faces. Here, across all four lateral faces, a single fully closed concentric ring eye sits at one side of the composition, and a flowing S-curve or spiral extends from it across the remainder of the face. No two faces treat that extension the same way: on one face the wave opens into a broad arc; on another it curls tightly back almost to its own starting point; on a third it sits somewhere between the two. Four eyes, four waves, four slightly different decisions about where a line should go once it leaves the circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eEach eye carries a warm cream-white to warm beige outer ring, a deep warm dark brown to near-black interior, and a small warm brown pupil set just off-centre within that interior — visible clearly in the angled photographs. The ground of this bead is warm medium-to-dark brown, notably lighter and warmer in overall tone than many of the pitch-black or deep chocolate-brown beads in this collection. The end caps at both tips are warm honey-tan to warm caramel-brown, and the drill holes are small, neat, and centred, with a warm golden-brown interior visible at both ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe form is a compact oval barrel — short and dense relative to its width, at 25.8×11.7mm the smallest bead in this collection to date. That compactness changes how the motif reads: with less length to work across, the eye-and-wave line on each face feels immediate, almost handwritten, rather than unfolding gradually the way it might on a longer bead. The surface is high-gloss throughout, with no cracks, chips, or structural damage visible in any photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThis bead carries cinnabar (硃砂, zhūshā) presence consistent with its age, though not at a level prominent enough to warrant treatment as a dedicated bloodspot piece — a light, age-consistent characteristic rather than a defining visual feature, and disclosed here simply as an honest part of the bead's full picture rather than a marketed highlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifferentiation note:\u003c\/strong\u003e At-082525-4ETT separates its eye and tiger tooth elements onto distinct faces. At-012325-4E uses isolated eyes on a warm amber-orange motif without any wave extension. At-042626-4E3 and At-061926-4EEG are both built on pitch-black grounds with entirely different secondary motifs. At-061926-4EW stands alone in this collection as the only four-eye bead where the eye and the wave are rendered as a single unbroken line — and it is the smallest bead processed in this entire collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eThe Four Eye \u0026amp; Wave Motif\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe four-eye motif (四眼天珠, sì yǎn tiānzhū) is traditionally understood as a remover of obstacles — protection and clarity extended in all four directions, easing the wearer's path toward whatever they are working to achieve. The wave motif, closely related in form to the tiger tooth motif and at times difficult to distinguish from it, is associated in Tibetan dzi tradition with continuous, never-ending success — a current that does not stop, mirroring the unbroken line of the wave itself as it moves across the surface of the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eCombined as they are on this bead — eye flowing directly into wave, no separation between the two — the pairing reads less as two distinct blessings placed side by side and more as a single continuous statement: clear sight feeding directly into sustained momentum, one quality enabling the other without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotif:\u003c\/strong\u003e Four Eye \u0026amp;
