<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pat P, post: 409155, member: 201&quot;]I was also going to say they might be old glass African trade beads. But I think they also could be either new faux glass trade beads made in China or hobbyist beads made out of polymer clay. If they *are* old trade beads, they&#039;re worth a nice amount.</p><p><br /></p><p>Around 15 years ago, I sold a few antique millefiore African trade bead lots to a buyer in China. I didn&#039;t think too much about it, but some years later I started seeing what to my eye are obviously fake trade beads on eBay and I suspect the Chinese have been copying them and pawning them off on unsuspecting buyers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
