In 2010 the Buoncosiglio Castle, a huge medieval castle in Trento (N.Italy), organized a great exhibt,ion entitled "One Thousand Years of Venetian Glass" and asked us to organized two halls on Venetian trade beads. We put on show both materials from our member collections and from two museums. The National Ethnographic and Anthropological Museum Pigorini of Rome loaned us a number of splendid objects with Venetian beads collected at the end of XIX cenury in East Africa. In the first picture: the necklace of a Somali Princess made of silver, Baltic amber and Venetian trade beads. The second picture is of a belt made of leather and trade beads.
