What are Trade Beads?
Trade beads are a type of decorative glass or ceramic bead that were historically used as a form of currency to facilitate trade between Europeans and Africans during the colonial period. The beads were typically made in Europe and transported to Africa, where they were traded for goods such as ivory, gold, and slaves. Trade beads come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and often feature intricate designs and patterns. They were highly prized by African tribes and were used in a variety of ways, such as for adornment, as currency, and for spiritual and cultural purposes. Today, trade beads are still used in jewelry making and can be found in a variety of vintage and contemporary designs. They continue to be a popular and unique choice for those who appreciate their history and cultural significance.

Notice before Order
Notice before Order
JoisseMoon value the uniqueness of handmade jewelries and original naturally produced gemstones that are without any forms of post-processing. PS: Please note that the natural gemstones used in our jewelry are one-of-a-kind and inherently unique. As a result, there might be slight variations in the actual size and weight of the items compared to the data we provide. Minor defects and variabilities are inevitable.
Crystals occur naturally, and they may display inherent imperfections, making them less than absolutely flawless. For crystal enthusiasts, please bear in mind that these natural gems can have their unique quirks. Additionally, the hand-polishing of crystal beads can lead to slight variations, but these won't exceed 0.5mm.
For some pieces, the overall material selection and the production time could take up to two weeks. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
