Description
Pendant carved from a small, orange-ish beach pebble (granite, I think; it's quite hard). 1-1/4 inches wide, 1/2 inch thick. Two front views, one back view.

The holes for the cord are just visible at the top of the upper scan; they lead into the round chamber in the back (top of lower scan). From each side, nine holes (three rows of three) go into the large, kidney-shaped chamber (bottom of lower scan). In the middle scan, the first two rows of holes are visible, the third rows are visible at the edges of the lower scan. The centerline hole goes into a small closed chamber that does not connect with anything else, and the two larger chambers do not connect; the chambers all have an inward lip at the top, so they are larger than they appear. About half the volume of the stone has been removed.

It's very hard to see the shape of this one without turning it in your hand....
