250 18Th19th Century Native American Trade BeadsMy mother made jewelry. She used only vintage stones, crystals, beads, findings and natural materials and was very, very picky about the material she bought and used. Haunting estate sales, flea markets, yard sales, she was usually the first buyer there. She was a popular artist for 45 years turning out beautiflu fashion jewelry and native american pieces. Her heritage was creek/delaware. These items are from her collection which is all pre-1980 with most items from the late 1880's through 1950's. She also collected native american trade beads.
