8×8″” Watercolor, Ink and Acrylic on Claybord

Antique glass trade beads have value today, but many are nowhere near the value they were when theist were originally created.  These tiny yet priced objects were traded world-wide and utilized as a form of currency.  Glass trade beads were a luxury item and something that denoted affluence and importance. Framed in a mahogany-finished wood frame, the overall measurements of this painting are 12”(W) x 12”(H) x 1”(D).
