We redesign these American Indian Artifacts of Stone,Gemstone,Pottery,Bone,Teeth,Antler, Horn,Trade Glass and Handblown Art Glass into wearable Traditionally Styled Necklaces. We have purchased these from various Collections,and Estates over the last 50 years. Most artifacts and beads are no longer strung by the time we receive them. Therefore, we restring them with various traditional strong bindings of sinew, teepee repair cord, and old heavy fishing cord. There are times we need to use reinforced or faux sinew because strength and aesteic beauty are our highest motives. After all most of the original strands that are still fully strung are too brittle and course to wear. If parts are missing and they usually are, we must replace them with similar pieces or beads. We try our best with what we have from our collections, but they may not be of the same time period. They are mostly handmade the old way when at all possible, if not antique or vintage. Many Trade Beads were traded to the Indian Nations hundreds of years ago and some are still Handmade today. We try to have at least some artifacts and beads that date back 150 to 200 years in every strand.
