Here is what AI says about this set:
“The beads show an opalescent, milky body with strong, rainbow-like metallic flashes on the faceted surfaces — the classic look of an “Aurora Borealis” (AB) thin-film coating on glass or crystal. The facets are very regular and the beads are uniformly formed, consistent with pressed/faceted glass crystal rather than a natural opal. The piece is vintage costume jewelry (1950s, Spain), a period and origin when AB-coated crystal beads were widely used.”
