Antique Italian Seed Beads: Micro "Greasy" Tangerine Orange

These are antique Italian glass seed beads in greasy (aka translucent) tangerine orange. As you can see from the photos, this batch has some greasy yellow beads mixed in. Expect small pieces of debris (from centuries old packing material) as well.
