I purchased these beads in Accra recently. Does anyone on this forum know more about these? Would love some information on where they may have been produced and when.

The photos show the top and bottom views of the bead. Each bead is about an inch long or a bit more, but I can get back tomorrow with exact measurements if needed. Thank you!

Most likely made in Indonesia, sometime within the last 10 years or so

Made in Indonesia to replicate Kiffa bead designs.

Here are the strands that Hands of the Hills had last year at the Grant Inn show. I didn't see any this year with HoH. Thomas probably has examples from 3 different batches.
