Good day folks, I am posting this picture on behalf of a newbie bead friend who was uncertain of her purchase. I thought that the beads in the top picture were new Chinese and/or Indian especially with the thick white residue in the holes. Most of the murines look familiar but... The beads below look like Venetian beads from the 70s. But I am not an expert on 'newer' beads so if you have the time please respond. Thank you!
