    Of course this is an ornate Chinese bead measure 3 cm weight 12 gr. I have no idea what kind of stone this could be. So therefore I would like to ask you two questions:
    Is there anybody who translate the text and who can given an idea about the kind of stone?

      The text is Tibetan as TubeAmp mentioned. It looks like the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum.
