There are lots of shops in Seminyak which stock these stick pearls, all around the same price, They are sold price per string, and dependant of the size of the biwa pearl, not always the case that the larger the more expensive. The main shop I buy from is (Pearls and Gemstones - I think it trades under a different name now ), it is Jl Raya Seminyak, No. 17 Kuta Bali, Tel 62 - 361- 736880, downstairs they sell jewellry already made up, and upstairs they sell wholesale beads of all shapes, sizes and quality. On the opposite side of road tucked away on a corner block there are 3 other shops selling the same beads.
