Featured Beads- Scarab and random others

Any thoughts on these glass beads please? Interesting or not?
No clasp to date on dark blue (I like these ), just a coiled piece of metal. Green is very cold so I’m thinking Jade.
Thanks for looking

 

Attracted by the word scarab.. .
Czech glass beads, maybe Neiger, though the scarabs don't show the same caracteristics to me
The green one seems to be stone, not sure if jade

 

I thought I'd throw that little breadcrumb your way

 

Bingo! You got me trapped

 

Attracted like a beetle to dung!

Agree with kyra on all counts. Not sure what the orange & white bead is; glass also? Not Neiger but the cobalt is so striking.

 

Yes

 

Those scarabs do look Neiger.

 

I feel like every glass scarab I see is described as Neiger Bros, to the point where I'm really not sure which are, which not. This is supposed to be Neiger, from eBay UK by way of Pinterest:



This is also supposed to be Neiger:



I'll backtrack. The light blue scarabs could be Neiger, but think the cobalt not. I only ever see opaque glass associated with them.

 

Yes, it was the pale blue ones I meant, I agree Neiger is opaque. Love that first example, I shall have to go hunt Ebay for it now, damn your eyes.

 

Looking at eBay UK it seems Neiger was very busy and wide ranging in what they produced .
There's even a Neiger spider for @kyratango

 

I'll keep the cobalt ones anyway as I love the colour so it matters not who made them other than for interest. This afternoon has been expanding my knowledge of Neiger!. Thanks everyone

 

Thanks! Just saw it :

 

How about this:

 

Here are the earrings for the blue:

You have an evil streak, you do.

 

It’s stunning! I love it.

 

OMG. I have a necklace that looks like it might be Neiger. It's red. I'll dig it out and post it.

 

Oh, an "eye candy" thread. Beautiful beads!

 

I love beads! I have a boxful mostly that are awaiting restringing. Some do look good enough to eat.
