Back in 1973 was when I first started collecting "Trade Beads" as they were called even then. Mostly old Venetian beads but my interests were broad. I started making and selling jewelry at the same time and still make jewelry today. At one point in my collecting career I had about a half a million beads but have since divested substantially. My collection was primarily from African Traders and American Traders of antique Venetian beads from the African trade. I have also collected beads throughout Europe and the orient.
