Explore the artistic excellence of Ghana with our New Tabular Brass Beads Strand, expertly crafted by the Ashanti artisans using the ancient lost wax technique. Each bead in this collection is formed from a unique wax mold that is carefully crafted and then destroyed, ensuring that each bead is a one-of-a-kind piece.
Product Details:
- Strand Length: Approximately 21 3/4 inches (55 cm) from bead to bead
- Bead Dimensions: Each bead measures approximately 21-22 mm x 20-21 mm x 9-10 mm
YOUR STRAND WILL BE IDENTICAL TO THE STRAND SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPH (GIVEN NORMAL VARIATION SINCE THESE BEADS ARE ALL COMPLETELY HANDMADE).
This strand not only exemplifies the unique craftsmanship of the Ashanti people but also embodies the deep cultural significance and history of Ghana. Each bead narrates a story of artisanal skill and traditional methods preserved across generations.
Heritage and Craftsmanship of Lost Wax Casting in Ashanti Bead Making
The lost wax casting method, a signature of Ashanti craftsmanship, involves intricate and labor-intensive processes that produce not just beads but symbols of cultural identity and continuity. This technique highlights the Ashanti's mastery over metal and their ability to express artistic and cultural narratives through brass.
