(Another) Identify These Strings

I know this site is bombarded with these types of threads every single day, but like all the others...I need help.

They are round wounds, and i received them on a bass in a trade a few months ago.

I don't know what they ARE, but I know they are NOT...Blue Steels or Rotosounds. Roto Nickels have teal silks, Blue Steel Nickels have light blue silk, Blue Steels have grey silk.

Are those roundwounds? I've seen silks that color but never on roundwounds.

May just have to dig through the silks thread:
Silk colors | TalkBass.com
Chalk that one off to the computer monitor. I withdraw my suggestion.
 
the only brand I've encountered with the silk so short is Harley Benton, but they have different colours: light blue/azure for the 40-95 set and orange for the 45-105 set.
maybe they are some cheap strings like the Harley Benton, with a different brand.
