Black Dog Tooth Ruffle Trade Beads

Black Dog Tooth Trade beads are historical adornments that add a touch of cultural flair to any jewelry design. These beads originate from the era of the African trade routes and carry a rich legacy of commerce and cultural exchange. Characterized by their unique shape with distinctive ruffled edges, each bead is a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of the artisans who created them. These beads are crafted from glass and serve as tangible reminders of the global trade networks that connected distant cultures and shaped the course of history. 

This strand is not intended to be a ready-to-wear necklace. Although the strand can be worn "as is," the string holding it together is not durable and may break with use. For this reason, we recommend that you restring the beads before wearing them.
