The ground shows a confirmed two-zone structure: warm brown at both drilled ends, deepening to a much darker, near-black tone through the central body, verified independently from the relevant white-background photos for each zone. Against this, the cream-white banding and eye rings sit in strong contrast throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe bead is a classic barrel form, drilled through the centre. The single-eye face pairs its central motif with plain vertical stripe bands and an angular shield border beneath the eye; the two-eye face instead uses continuous curved lines that connect the two circles in a loose, looping pattern with no straight stripes at all. Because the two faces read so differently, this bead rewards handling and rotation rather than a single fixed view. The warm brown translucent gloss visible at both drilled ends supports natural agate as the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eNo cracks are visible anywhere on this bead in these photos. The surface is clean throughout, with no bloodspots present on this piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eThe Three Eye Motif\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe Three Eye motif is traditionally associated with happiness, success, and longevity for its wearer. On this piece, the motif's presence shifts dramatically face to face — a single prominent eye on one side, a looser two-eye composition on the other — giving the bead two very different characters depending on which face is turned toward the viewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotif:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three Eye\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56.4mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.1mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barrel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Agate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge Estimate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage — Taiwan, 1980s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e No cracks visible; clean surface throughout\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBloodspots:\u003c\/strong\u003e None (Tier 1)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct ID:\u003c\/strong\u003e V-070226-ThE-001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/collections\/vintage-dzi-beads\"\u003eVintage Dzi\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/collections\/new-dzi\"\u003eNew \u0026amp; Vintage Dzi\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eLearn more about dzi bead history and symbolism: \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/blogs\/news\/what-are-dzi-beads\"\u003eWhat Are Dzi Beads?\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/blogs\/news\/what-makes-a-dzi-bead-authentic\"\u003eWhat Makes a Dzi Bead Authentic?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eA genuine piece of 1980s Taiwanese dzi craftsmanship with two distinct faces, ready for its next owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e✅ Authenticity Guaranteed | ✅ 30-Day Returns | ✅ Worldwide Shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAll photos are of the exact bead you will receive — unretouched, shot against a plain white background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHashtags:\u003c\/strong\u003e #DziBead #VintageDzi #ThreeEyeDzi #TaiwanDzi #AgateDzi #TibetanDzi #DziBeadCollector #AncientDziShop #DziJewelry #HandCarvedAgate #DziAmulet #BuddhistBead #DziMotif #TwoToneAgate #AuthenticDzi\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ancient Dzi Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43982564425894,"sku":"","price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/7198\/files\/20230223_105630_0859c1f8-b1d4-4f92-9b8b-1dce098f898e.jpg?v=1783064219","url":"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/vintage-three-eye-motif-dzi-bead-v-070226-the-001","provider":"Ancient Dzi Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
