About Trade Beads:

Trade Beads refer to beads produced between the late 1400s and early 1900s in Venice, Bohemia, and other European countries for trade with Africa and the Americas. These beads were exchanged for gold, ivory, slaves in Africa, and furs with Native Americans. The peak of trade bead production was from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, with millions of beads being exported to Africa, mostly produced in Venice.
