Very cool necklace with glass beads

[Cosmo]

This necklace is a heirloom item. All of the beads were found in illinois and restrung together to make this cool necklace. Was curious if anyone knows anything about the 4 glass beads. Unclemac perked my interest with my previous bead find he identified. Hey uncle or anyone else any info on these?

Rock not sure,I was told they were artifact beads found and strung together, could be a family myth lol the glass beads look very old.

Yes Sir! Nez Perce selectively bred for them. My profile pic is one of mine. He's my 10 yr old gelding, MM's Dewdrop Dancer, aka "Dewy". I bred my ApHC mare to an ApHC foundation stallion, so he was born on my place. He is trained/shown by me and has many Top 10 in the Nation placings, including a #1 in Nation in Eventing They get a bad rap about being stubborn and stupid, but that's only because the rider or trainer doesn't know how to handle them One of the smartest horse breeds in my opinion and have the heart & stamina to go the distance if needed. Mine have gone from the show ring to endurance/distance riding. I no longer get to ride my boy, daughter took him over!
