Original Message:   Beads on left are actually white. Pink beads are on the right in the next photo.
The 70s (did they keep making them after that decade?) Japanese beads were included for comparison purposes, their tiny murrine being so distinctive.

Also, the surface texture of the Japanese glass is much smoother and glossier - the Chinese beads have a less thoroughly fire polished/melted texture.
