(3) Old Glass Feather Beads Brown & White Venetian Indian Fur Trade 1800's

Description: EACH BUYER GETS 3 BEADS The Lewis and Clark expedition carried thirty-three pounds of small trade beads.  There is no evidence they carried the bead pictured to the right, but these beads are known as Lewis and Clark beads.  There are several entries in the various journals kept by the expedition members about how hard it was to trade for food with any of the beads they carried, except the feather beads and blue/white beads. Bead prices varied with location, demand, and how bad Indians wanted a particular bead. When trading for beaver pelts, the Hudson's Bay Company used a standard value based on made beaver...a made beaver was stretched, dried, and ready for shipment. Records from early trading posts show a made beaver was worth: six Hudson's Bay beads; three light blue Padre (Crow) beads; two larger transparent blue beads. Here is a very nice collection of (3) 1800's glass trade beads. The surface shows a very nice patina with signs of age. They have a matte finish. Each bead is unique and different. Each buyer receives 3 beads of my choice, I randomly grab 3 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.
