Featured in this lot is a large Red Glass Trade Bead necklace featuring large faceted transparent glass trade beads interspersed with transparent red and dark red pony trade beads, and sinew fastened, circa late 1800s - early 1900s. Native American Indians have used beads as part of their attire for centuries. These beads were made from shells, stone, wood, copper, bones and antler and other locally available materials Glass beads for trade were introduced to the Native Indians initially by European explorers, and later by The Hudson's Bay Company and other fur trading companies. Lewis and Clark introduced glass beads into new areas they traversed, but they also saw glass beads that had been obtained by Native Americans on the Pacific coast from other traders, who then in turn traded them to interior tribes. As the fur trade expanded westward, forts and trading posts were established, and the availability of trade goods, which certainly included an expanding selection of glass beads, grew. This trade necklace is in overall good condition, wear more evident on the larger faceted trade beads from age and use. Measures 27"L, 13.5" worn
