Don't have them in hand yet to feel or take a good look at the holes, but will soon.
Any opinions just from these pictures?

New, old, Venetian, other?

To me they look older Venetian early mid 1900's but I have not seen any like this before. Any opinions or information appreciated.
Beads approx 20mm long

Thanks Wayne
