I am certainly no expert on old stone beads. To me, the overall style looks like some of the green stone beads that are currently being made in China. They are most often strung as bracelets, the holes are quite rough, and the finish on the ends is like on yours sometimes flattened out. The stone to me looks like some it was artificially colored or enhanced.

However.....it could just as well be that these newer beads I have seen are trying to emulate some older style of beads. And that yours are the original. Perhaps someone else can tell us more?
