This group was won on ebay if I remember correctly listed as wooden beads. I sometimes search using strange key words and mispellings just to see what other people "think" they actually have up for sale. Try it, you will be surprised at the auctions of good stuff that go for 1 bid. for example, just the word millefiori can be spelled like 7 different ways.
Also I won some Large "African amber" beads that were listed as yellow door knobs, you just never know what people will call their stuff.
