I had assumed these to be Venetian (when you assume…) - but might they be Czech made beads decorated with cane from Venice?
Many thanks..

These are quite typical of the Czech beads made with Venetian millefiori cane. They would import the murrini and use them in beads and cabs. When compared to Venetian made beads, the Czechs generally (though not always) work on a bright opaque base color, keep more of the bead 'uncovered' and apply the cane more random, and sometimes in broken pieces too.
