Help Identify beads please

My wife and I found some beads in an estate sale box that are new to us. A very old (90+) jewelry maker had them stashed for who knows how long.
I have a pretty good picture, but no place to provide a link. They are sort of frosted glass with white raised dots on them, and translucent glass with raised clear dots.
I will send the pic to anyone who thinks they might help. It is a fairly large file to show as much detail as possible. They are very nice and we would like to know what they are and what they are worth.
TIA

Armand, I don't want to be rude, but could you do me a huuuge favor and post in plain
text, please? I'm having a hard time reading your messages...and my reader doesn't
like rich text...it freezes up. I sure appreciate it. Thanks.

They look like pre-war ("vintage") Japanese beads to me. I think they were
called sugared beads or something like that (cuz they look like gumdrops
lol). As to their value, not a clue. But there are some folks on here who
should be able to help you on that one. Oh Beckiiiiiiiiiiiiii?

Jalynne,
I do not know what rich text is.
Tell me how to fix it and I will.
I tried to email you off the group and it would not go through.
thanx
Armand

They look like vintage frit beads to me.

You're using Outlook Express, so it's pretty easy. Here's what you
should do.

Go to Tools
Click on Options
Click on Send tab
On the bottom you'll see "News Sending Format"
Choose Plain Text
Hit Okay

That should work, if it doesn't let me know.

You have to go to your newsgroup setting and change the settings from htlm
settings since most newsgroups will not support this text.
