As technology advances each day .... The CNC Router manufacturing process finally gets matured for stone carving in recent years . It is a way that the computer software controls a mechanical arm holding the drill bit to go with the designed toolpath that can be given by a artist through variety of 3D software. It is virtually the same as hand carving by human .

However comparing to human's hand carving the biggest advantage of the CNC machine is it can produce very fine carving curve with detailed artful expression thus a lot more very well defined curves can be achieved per square inch on the stone. The arm and hand never got tired and shaky they are always accurate.

We have seen many of these new stunning beads listed here. The well controlled height of the bead layers according to the color of the stone have made the art work so dramatic that they deserve to be an item for collection . The overall quality makes you feel it is a piece of fine jewelry with high class other than a crafted component.

We carefully selected the layered or banded Agate and Jasper from the raw stone to make the final character outstanding from the background . In the end each surface and edge of the beads are polished more smoother than ever before. The 3rd picture of ebay listing shows one piece of polished slab plus one bead from the same raw stone.

Design and Carving process are still very time consuming . One piece of fine bead still takes long time to ne made when we add up the time on each manufacture and design stage together . So we have limited quantity each week for listing And you will not see the same one again since the patterns of color as natural stone never repeat themselves  Like many years ago we started the hand carved style pendant beads on the market We are again the very first to adventure into this promising land. You have to see it to believe it.
