I found something similar in a souvenir/antique shop along the Oregon Coast.
Found similar artifact on Oregon Coast, in Souvenir/Antique Store.
Sheep/Goat/Pony/Cow Bells, with Glass trade beads. Glass Trade beads of possible Chinese Origin, imported during Lewis & Clark Era for trade with Native Americans. ( Beads mass produced in china using reed/molten glass method ) Natives rejected most beads, only going for cobalt color & perhaps the rest adorned the animals?
let me know what you have found if anything
