Since we're on the subject of pineapples - do these qualify as pineapple beads? Please look at the funky yellow elbows and the black rounds. Any other thoughts on their age, provenance, rarity?

By the way, I loved the white and (especially) the red ones. Incidentally, in Ghana, I've seen newly made Krobo pink ones, created to imitate the original pink and yellow version.

thanks!
