Hi JDA,

Of course I agree with you, not all plastic beads are collectible, not all beads are trade beads, and the term "Trade Bead" is over used. But I still believe that not all beads, before 1900 should be classified as modern. Beads should follow a similar listing as with jewelry.

Jewelry basically uses:

Victorian-1830's into the 1900's Art Nouveau-1895-1915 Edwardian-1890-1920's Art Deco- 1920-1935 Retro-1935-1955

If one of the objects, (Change) is also to teach people, why not a system, that will teach. Rather than just term, prior to 1900 beads as "Modern".

If their is to be a change to the better, lets make it a good change. I just don't fell, that just, having a Collectible Bead Category, with very basic time frames, is sufficient.
