Abrus Seeds

You get 7 whole seeds. These are best used in lucky amulets, but use them in a bag or a bottle. 

Traditionally used to make jewellery such as bracelets for ages, abrus seeds recently became trendy and worn by Western women, who wore them constantly, even while sweating and showering, which caused toxins from the beads to enter through their pores and make them ill. We should note that we believe no jewellery should be worn day in, day out - both to take care of yourself and your jewellery, but we still advise that you don't wear these seeds next to your skin. Contain them in something else.
