[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 306271, member: 85"]Hi Marko - I have beads similar to this in pink. Strung the same with a little bead in between. Because of the way they are stained with an iridescent coating, I have always thought mine were from the 1960s - 70s. Similar to the staining they did on wine glasses. If you wash or scrub too hard the stain wears off. I think your beads may have had the coating on the whole bead. My pink ones do. Are there no beads that have a complete coating on them? They all have just one spot of iridescent? I do not think these are current or from a hobbiest.[/QUOTE]
