About Trade Beads:

Trade Beads are beads manufactured in Venice, Bohemia, and other European countries from the late 1400s to the early 1900s for trade with Africa and the Americas. These beads were exchanged for gold, ivory, and slaves in Africa, and for furs with Native Americans in North America. Trade Beads reached their peak between the mid-1800s and early 1900s, with millions of beads produced and exported to Africa. The majority of these beads were produced in Venice.
