Many bead manufactures sell beads in hanks. These are beads strung on string. The manufactures know how much a hank of beads weigh and how many beads per strand depending on the size bead. A hank is usually about 12 strands of beads. This makes it possible to charge per hank. They make up bunches or hanks to sell to stores. Many bead stores break down the hanks in smaller bunches and sell them that way as well. It makes it easy to display the beads because they can hang the hanks on the wall.
