What you see is exactly what you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a round bead the treasure vase has no fixed position. Hold these beads by the drill axis and the vase reads clearly — neck and rim rising toward the drill hole, the swelling body below, scrollwork curling out from the sides. Turn either bead a quarter and the design dissolves into abstract curves before the next face brings the vase back. Every angle shows a different part of the same motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two beads share the motif, the 1980s Taiwan origin and a dark brown ground, but differ in tone. The left bead is a deep, even chocolate-brown with bright, cool cream-white lines and strong contrast. The right bead's dark areas lean warmer and slightly reddish, and its lines read as a warmer cream. The small difference only makes the pairing stronger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vase wraps the full circumference of each bead, its complete form — neck, rim, body, base and scrollwork — clear from the main face, with the scrollwork taking over from the other side. Both drill holes on each bead are small and clean. No cracks or chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are vintage beads, made in Taiwan in the 1980s using the traditional dzi crafting technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Treasure Vase Motif\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe treasure vase (寶瓶, bumpa) is one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols of Tibetan Buddhism. On dzi it represents inexhaustible wealth, abundance and the fulfilment of wishes — a vessel holding prosperity, health, long life and spiritual attainment that never empties, however much is drawn from it. On a round bead the vase wraps the whole sphere, its abundance reaching in every direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotif:\u003c\/strong\u003e Treasure Vase (寶瓶); full vase with neck, rim, body, base and flanking scrollwork wrapping each bead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.1mm × 19.0mm (left) \/ 20.5mm × 18.5mm (right)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round beads, pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Agate, dark chocolate-brown and warm reddish-brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage, 1980s Taiwan, made using the traditional dzi crafting technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good; no cracks or chips; high-gloss surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloodspots:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct ID:\u003c\/strong\u003e V-073026-TVP2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/collections\/taiwan-dzi\"\u003eTaiwan Dzi\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/collections\/round-beads\"\u003eRound Beads\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/collections\/pairs-sets\"\u003ePairs and Sets\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou May Also Like\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/vintage-round-treasure-vase-dzi-bead-pair-v-052526-tvp\"\u003eVintage Round Treasure Vase Dzi Pair (V-052526-TVP)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/vintage-round-treasure-vase-dzi-bead-pair-taiwan-1980s-v-071426-tvv\"\u003eVintage Round Treasure Vase Dzi Pair (V-071426-TVV)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/vintage-round-double-wave-dzi-pair-taiwan-1980s-v-071426-dwp3\"\u003eVintage Round Double Wave Dzi Pair (V-071426-DWP3)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/antique-round-four-eye-lotus-treasure-vase-dzi-bead-19mm-at-080926-4elt\"\u003eAntique Round Four Eye, Lotus and Treasure Vase Dzi (At-080926-4ELT)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/antique-two-eye-treasure-vase-agate-dzi-fusiform-dark-brown-at-062226-2etv2\"\u003eAntique Two Eye and Treasure Vase Dzi (At-062226-2ETV2)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/antique-two-eye-treasure-vase-dzi-translucent-chalcedony-at-061826-2etv\"\u003eAntique Two Eye Treasure Vase Dzi, Chalcedony (At-061826-2ETV)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/products\/ancient-round-treasure-vase-dzi-bead-ac-011824-tvr\"\u003eAncient Round Treasure Vase Dzi (Ac-011824-TVR)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/blogs\/news\/taiwan-dzi-beads-vintage-1980s-guide\"\u003eTaiwan Dzi Beads: The Vintage 1980s Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/blogs\/news\/dzi-motifs-and-their-interpretations-other-motifs\"\u003eDzi Bead Motifs and Their Meanings\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix unretouched photographs; colour and surface detail are exactly as shown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ancient Dzi Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56885255667878,"sku":null,"price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/7198\/files\/Vintage_Pair_of_Round_Treasure_Vase_dzi_beads_2.jpg?v=1788944138","url":"https:\/\/www.ancientdzishop.com\/zh-tw\/products\/vintage-round-treasure-vase-dzi-pair-dark-brown-v-073026-tvp2","provider":"Ancient Dzi Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
