About us

African glass "Trade Beads" of European origin came into existence when European Traders along the route between Europe and Africa were pressed for an acceptable currency form to exchange on African soil. Brightly colored glass beads with exotic shapes and intricate patterns fit extremely well as the most desirable trade material due to the popular demand that African Cultures had for luxurious and unusual adornment. The classic traditions of African Adornment were finely crafted of gold, iron, ivory, and bone and other organic materials. Gorgeous exotic stone beads of Indus Valley origin were actively traded in the Empire of Mali at this time. However, glass working technology outside of Egypt and the Ancient trade in Northern Africa was mostly unknown in Sub Saharan Africa at this time. Therefore, the exquisite glass beads that the European traders had to offer were widely and rapidly received.

    The seller shipped my item to an another US client in error. I had to go to the post office and mail the package I received to the correct customer. I DID receive my items in GOOD condition . I did, however, spend an hour of my personal time standing in line at the post office and spent my own funds to make sure other US customer got her goods as promised by the seller. She has also received her items in good condition, as well.
