Either it was a local thing (I originally got the picture at Good Will) or my search skills are lacking. My wife loved it so I wish I could get her a reproduction.

I'm thinking P. coccineus earrings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaseolus_coccineus 3-4 would fit across a standard banana cross section.

Adenanthera pavonina seem particular good for jewelry but maybe it wouldn't be considered a "bean".

Lot's of seeds might be good for jewelry/ adornment. Doubtless we're not the first humans to consider this matter. I'm gonna go out on a botanical limb and say this ain't no bean. And it's darned pretty!

Oh no it is a whole thing in native cultures. The species I linked is a legume but does match the bean form factor.

Very early on we knew seeds were special things.
