5 green uranium vaseline beads, African trade beads, vaseline trade beads, vintage bohemian trade beads, antique vaseline glass beads (5)

These five rare dark green vaseline trade beads date to around 1900 and were crafted in Bohemia for African trade routes. Each saucer-shaped bead measures approximately 16mm and carries the authentic patina of extensive wear—chips and pitting are natural markers of their century-old journey across continents. Their uranium content gives them a subtle luminescence, adding to their distinctive character for collectors and jewelry makers drawn to vintage materials with genuine history.
