Welcome Marie-José and Howard! The type you show is a popular and pricey variety, in fact I just traded my versions of this design to a bead dealer from Niger for some Kiffa beads, so I have to show some distant cousins. Chevron with rooster is from Luigi, the rooster slices are from an old Venetian find according to Luigi. The other bead is probably from India, it has a face on one side and a similar bird/dog/gondola on the visible side.
