These lion's tooth glass pendant beads are molded and measure 65mm in length. I've not seen them before and am hoping someone can tell me if they are Czech or not. They were heavily soiled and have been cleaned, thanks a bunch, Judy

I think these are the French versions of the lion's teeth. If you look at the side, you will probably find a thicker band (2-3mm) than with Czech molded beads.
In that case, they are Prosser beads, made by the Bapterosses factory in Briare. They appear on sample cards of this factory, and as far as I know, at least one has been found in the dumpsite of this factory. They are not your typical 'Prosser bead', and quite rare to find.
I was very lucky to find a strand of them in Tucson this year, from an African dealer. He had two strands: the other one went to the Picards.
