Shop Beads! Native American beads and beadwork are very important in the history and culture of Indigenous peoples in North America. Natural materials such as bone and horn and wampum (quahog shell). The tradition of Native American beadwork changed when European traders arrived in the 16th century. They brought glass trade beads to Native tribes. These new materials sparked a creative evolution, giving rise to a vibrant and enduring beadwork art form.
Over the years, Native American tribes created special beading techniques, patterns, and styles. These reflect their unique cultures, beliefs, and local influences. Many styles of beadwork exist, such as loom beadwork, appliqué, and lazy stitch. These styles have created a rich history of tribal beadwork traditions. These traditions are still practiced today. Seed Beads and glass crow and tile are ideal for Native American beadwork.
Whether used for decorating regalia, ceremonial items, moccasins, or everyday adornment, Native American beadwork remains a vital and living art, deeply connected to heritage, identity, and storytelling.
