Make a Splash!

These vibrant glass trade beads from the 1800’s were made in Bohemia in the 1800’s, traded to Africa and presented to Cameroon chiefs during weddings, hence their popular name of wedding beads. Finished with old white Maasai trade beads, and some old Venetian red white hearts.  Globs of sunlight!  They are pitted and a little dinged from all the partying that went on, but this all adds to the charm.
