Chevron African Trade Beads

Chevron trade beads were made for trade by Europeans in Africa. They were exchanged for different services, palm oil, ivory, other goods, and even slaves. Africans placed a lot of value on them and they were used for decoration, as a measure of value, as currency, and for various other uses.

About me

Welcome to my new store,

Several years ago I became permanently disabled and purchased numerous items to alleviate my arthritis and joint pain.  I noticed that numerous people swore by gemstones, magnetic therapy and copper bracelets to relieve their pain. All of the ones I purchased were either cheap construction, didn’t last or didn't have enough magnets to make a difference. So I began to study gemstones, copper, magnets and created my own bracelets. Before I knew it my chiropractor and other health professionals wanted to buy them.

I literally was hospitalized for 10 days and sold more than 50 bracelets to the staff! So began my little business. I’ve sold many bracelets on eBay but had to close the store for personal reasons but now I’m back with new name and new items! Please check out all my listings.
