wow..I've collected antique/vintage silver beads for over 30 years from India, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Niger, Morocco, Yemen & so many more places but have NEVER run across these. They do look like they have a fair amount of silver in them, & they obviously look worn although that can be manipulated as we all know. I would have said a cross between Afghani/India...or perhaps Bedouin or Omani? I keep changing my mind :) The wear patterns are all distinctive & unique looking to me so I do believe they are very old. I love them wherever & whenever they are from however!!! I think they are great! Lynne
