About Trade Beads:
Trade Beads were created 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, slaves, and furs. The peak production period for Trade Beads was from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, with millions of beads produced and exported to Africa, primarily from Venice.
