EACH BUYER GETS 10 BEADS The Hudson's Bay Company traded these old style melon glass beads to the Native Americans in the Great Lakes region of North America including the Huron tribe. Here is a very nice collection of (10) 1800's glass trade beads. About 6mm wide. The Native Indians preferred colors with a love for the sky blue beads, red, and yellow. The surface shows a very nice patina with signs of age. Each bead is unique and different. Each buyer receives 10 beads of my choice, I randomly grab 10 and send them, cannot pick and choose at this low price. A fine collection of artifacts for your collection. My father left these artifacts and many many more items to me and I am passing them along to you. I hope my customers will enjoy their purchase.
