For your consideration in this lot is a collection of Hudson Bay red white heart beads, with exotic trade necklace pendants. There are four necklaces in this lot. The first is a red white heart trade bead necklace with a Russian Whale ivory pendant measuring 2" x .75". This necklace shows a strand of red white heart beads, white trade beads, and next to the pendant are three blue glass beads on each side of the ivory. The second necklace is a red white heart beads strand with African skunk bead pendant with a single yellow exotic trade bead to each side. Along the strand are a set of two and set of three black beads with white stripes. The third necklace in this collection is a Hudson Bay red bead with black hearts and white glass trade bead strand, and a medium size yellow exotic pendant. Finally in this lot is a strand of red white heart beads and frosted glass trade beads mixed throughout. These Hudson Bay White Heart “Cornaline d'Aleppo” exotic trade beads dating to the 16th-17th Century. These 1600-1800’s beads are regularly referred to as “white hearts” due to the opaque white core at the “heart” or center of each bead that is finished with a red semi-translucent outer shell (showing the white partially through). All four necklaces are in good condition with some signs of wear on the beads due to age and use. The red white heart beads are highly collectable. Two necklaces measure approximately 11" and the larger two 15" in strung length.
