In old times, emerald beads were hand-drilled instead of machine drilled. This created slightly uneven holes with sharp inner edges. To protect the string, jewelers traditionally applied “joban” (oil inside the bead holes) to soften edges and prevent thread cuts. This method is not a color enhancement, but a historic practice that preserves the integrity of the beads while retaining their original beauty and authenticity
