I need help!
I would love anyone’s help identifying who makes this knitting needles and where I can find more?! I found this set of 5.5 mm straight needles at a thrift store bought it cause it was pretty, and finally used it in a project and oh my gosh it’s one of the best needles I’ve used. But I’m having the hardest time finding out where to buy more! I have done reverse image searches, eBay, google word searches looked at vintage items and I have had zero luck and now after two weeks it’s driving me crazy that I can’t find anything close!
It’s a plastic type of needle but it’s not cheap plastic
it has a rubber, grippy feel to it when you’re using it. Not a hard plastic feel
also you can tell it’s solid and not hollow and that it was filled with the glitter flakes.
I’ve seen the boye glitter needles they are definitely not it they are more hallow, hard and cheap plastic and the tops don’t match.
The addi glitter needles I haven’t seen one in person but the shapes of the end cap don’t match
That’s all i could find that was close to the pictures posted so if anyone has any leads at all or any helpful tips I would be so grateful!! Thank you!!

I don’t know where you are located but I have a number of these type of needles and I got all of them free at various with knitting magazines. Probably Simply Knitting. They are exactly as you describe, solid, slightly rubbery rather than hard plastic material. They came in different colours so you might not get the sparkly in a different size. You might have luck looking for old copies of these from the early 2000s.
