i think Chinese because the ends are like ?1980s bead caps i've seen before- but these are really handsome and unusual cloisonné beads!

Probably new Chinese.

They are attractive but cheaply made. The low grade metal is stamped and the center area is rolled sheet metal with a visible seam. But the enamel is nicely applied to a good design.

They could be from India but I agree: probably new Chinese. I have seen a lot of Chinese and enameled beads before. But I have not seen these; therefore I believe they are very new.
