Title A name given to the resource Necklace Description An account of the resource Necklaces were important heirlooms in Ainu society and were occasionally put out on display inside houses along with other prized possessions. These necklaces are most commonly made of blue, black or white glass beads. An additional wooden medallion decorated with metal rosettes is sometimes added to the string, as is the case in this example. The glass beads were mostly obtained from China and mainland Japan and imported to Hokkaidō through the extensive trade links established by the Ainu with distant communities in Sakhalin, Manchuria, and closer neighbouring groups.
