I did a search for highest price Venetians, trying to learn the actual selling price for the oval fancies. It appears they sold between $500 and $600 approximately....... Item 371966447799

At the top of the list is the strand of India chevrons. I'm mystified anyone would pay the price of $1200.00....... Item 172380017248

Very collectible. Some are Venetian. Our British members have published more info on BCN - search "lace bobbin" beads and "squiggle"beads

I'll have to remember those in case they pop up during my searches. I sort of remember the previous discussion. When I saw them I wondered if they were boshan beads... oops... NOT. They look like some newer beads... it's the oblate shape... so I might not be able to differentiate.

I still can't get over the India made chevrons... oy, don't they know?

Collectors tend to like what they know about. -Although they sometimes say: "I know what I like."
