The red "perles oblongues" are similar with two of these beads found in Sudan. I think these beads were made in Morocco after 1960 with the prosser-moulds from Baptarosse. The mottled effect with blobs, to look more like coral (thank you Stefany), is maybe a moroccon invention? Or maybe the beads were reheated?
