Embrace the exceptional craftsmanship of our Beautiful Matching Strand of Handmade Brass Beads, artfully created by the Ashanti artisans of Ghana. Utilizing the ancient lost wax technique, each bead is forged from a uniquely crafted wax mold that is meticulously shaped and then destroyed, ensuring every bead is distinct.

Product Details:

  • Strand Length: Approximately 21 inches (53 cm) from bead to bead
  • Bead Size: Each bead is approximately 25-27 mm in length and 11-12 mm in diameter

YOUR STRAND WILL BE IDENTICAL TO THE STRAND SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPH (GIVEN NORMAL VARIATION SINCE THESE BEADS ARE ALL COMPLETELY HANDMADE).

These beads are not only a versatile accessory but also a piece of Ghanaian heritage, encapsulating the artistry and tradition of the Ashanti culture. Ideal for those who appreciate the richness of handmade art and are looking to add a piece of authentic African craftsmanship to their collection.

Exploring the Lost Wax Technique and Its Cultural Significance

The lost wax casting technique, cherished by the Ashanti artisans, involves a complex process where wax molds are intricately designed and then melted away, casting each bead in brass. This traditional method is not just about creating jewelry; it's a form of cultural expression that has been preserved over generations, symbolizing both the artistic skill and the cultural depth of the Ashanti people.
