Item Details

Description

CARNELIAN AFRICAN TRADE BEADS Group of 24 ""dug"" carnelian (red agate) African trade beads each four-sided the largest being 2 1/4"" across. The beads have been restrung into a 32"" necklace. Carnelian made its first appearance in Africa when Arab traders began carrying the stone with them on their trips across the Sahara. Carnelian fetched a high price in the bustling trading centers of West Africa and remains a sought-after commodity there especially among the Fulani Wodaabe and Tuareg peoples.
