My grandkids bought me some square-cut beads at the markets in
Freemantle, West Australia and yes they do have the fine powder stuff
which you notice when beading with them.

I have started writing the article on restoration of lace bobbins,

Most historical beads are produced by modern bead makers, but I do
not know if
I have ever seen modern "square cuts" with the file indentations on
them.
Have you?
Are they around? If so where?
Thanks
