Originally of Venetian origin, King Beads were produced during the course of the 18th and 19th century and circulated by traders primarily in Ghana and Nigeria. A number patterns, designs, and sizes may be found including yellow, green, black, striped, and dotted varieties. These beads all share a characteristic bicone shape that makes them instantly recognizable. Today, King Beads are coveted by collectors and bead aficionados alike who appreciate the rich cultural, artistic, and historical legacy that these works of art represent.
