These Venetian wound glass trade beads were masterfully crafted in Venice, Italy, and played a significant role in the African trade during the late 1800s to early 1900s. The intricate lampwork technique used to create these beads involves skillfully winding molten glass around a rod, resulting in unique and vibrant designs. These beads were highly valued and traded extensively in Ghana and across Africa, serving as both currency and decorative items.
