In historic times, gemstone drilling was done by hand, not machines. Holes were often uneven in the center with sharp edges inside. To protect the thread from breaking, jewelers applied a traditional method known as “joban” (a natural oil filling inside the bead hole).
👉 This does not enhance the color or quality of the emeralds—it only prevents thread damage. These natural features are considered a hallmark of authentic antique emerald beads and add to their uniqueness and charm.
