Original Message:   I do not recognize them.
They do not seem like Naga/Hill Tribe beads at all.

In Africa, I can think of very few significant makers of ceramic beads. An exception is Morocco—where well-fused clay beads have been made, that imitate other desired materials, such a amazonite. (Though in a variety of colors.)

I wonder if they could be some paste material (?). These are also made in Morocco and Mauritania, and some were made to imitate amber.

Have you checked their hardness? JDA.
