How to Identify an Original Piece
Fakes are common in this category. Here is what sets a genuine 1 Mukhi apart.
Genuine beads have four distinct, naturally-formed lines running from top to bottom, roughly equal in spacing and depth. Uneven or artificially deepened lines signal carving.
Ask for a lab or X-ray certification report confirming natural growth lines, not man-made cuts.
Surface should have a natural, slightly rough texture with visible pores overly smooth, uniform beads are usually fake or chemically treated.
Always buy from sellers who provide an authenticity certificate with each individual piece loose beads sold without certification are a major red flag.
