These boxes were imported as early gift boxes by manufacturers of soaps, perfumes, chocolates, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>The beads are lovely. The cylindrical one looks like an old trade bead, but I suspect the other ones are more recent.</p><p>The big round stunner with the faces is a replica bead from East Java, Indonesia. Not very old, but a great bead. East Java made glass trade beads long before Europe did, some have been found at Egyptian archaeological sites.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think it is ethnic, maybe from India.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
