String ID on some solo strings

Hello string experts,
I have a nice looking set of 3/4 size Solo strings (I think!) that were on my double bass when I bought it, but at the time as a DB novice I didn't think to ask what they were. I don't think they were the stock Stentor 1950 strings. The colours are:

A - Purple
E - Light blue
B - Green
F# - Black

I tried may different string ID websites but have drawn a blank - does anyone recognize these ?

Many thanks,
Pete

Looks like the bog stock OEM bridge retainers as fitted to all lower end Stentors - see my thread here

I spent a while looking through resources like the Quinn violins database, and the pictures of various strings on the contrabasseshop and gollihurs websites and couldn't find a match.
