Hello!
I acquired these from a friend who bought them many years ago from a trader named Abdul in the Bay area, she recalls.
They are molded glass (I think) in apparent imitation of blue agate.
Is anyone familiar with them? They're new to me.
So pretty!

Hi Linda,

I agree that these nice attractive glass beads imitate blue agate; and they are probably molded and Czech. (Or Central European.)

I wonder which Abdul it was (?). If we go back to the late 1970s there was an Afghan store owner, from whom I bought beads at that time.

JDA.
