Antique West African 'Trade Beads' necklace with 10x rare face beads – circa 1880-1920 Special and historically rich collector's necklace (African Trade Beads) from the Sahara region (Mauritania / West Africa), dating to the period 1880–1920. A unique composition that reflects the historic trade routes between Europe and West Africa.
