Hello all -- I recently came across an interesting set of old beads. At first blush, they look like desiccated "King Beads" from the African trade -- they are approximately the right size for a larger King Bead, but they are definitely not. I'd appreciate any guidance as to what they might be!

Thanks,
Abe @ Beadstore.com

Hello Abe

They look like new beads made in Indonesia to me from the pictures.

To my eyes, the surface has an acid etched look.
