Citrus PetiteTrade Bead Earrings
These Citrus Petite Trade Bead Earrings are handcrafted with striped Venetian "watermelon" beads. Dating back to the 19th century, Watermelon beads were highly coveted in Ghana and other African countries for trade. Due to their rarity in American markets, these earrings are a real treat. Each bead has a unique history and may display tiny scratches or dings from previous use, adding to their charm and character.
