African Cobalt Glass Trade Bead Necklaces
For your consideration are two African cobalt glass trade bead necklaces. Both necklaces show vibrant variations of blue cobalt beads from lighter sky blue to a dark blue bead. These beads are likely from the African trade, from the Pacific Northwest, and from the African trade, circa 19th century. The smaller beaded necklaces shows 75 beads, and the larger beaded necklace shows 81 beads, strung on a natural woven fiber strand. The condition of both necklaces are good, with some wear due to age. These necklaces measure approximately 11" and 13" in strung length.
