Authentic African Trade Beads - Recycled Krobo Glass Beads from Ghana

Discover the beauty and craftsmanship of these stunning powder glass beads, handmade by the skilled artisans of Kroboland in Ghana, West Africa. These beads, inspired by old Venetian glass trade beads, offer a unique and eco-friendly addition to your jewelry collection.

  • Strand Length: 21 3/4" (55 cm)
  • Bead Size: 13 - 14 mm in diameter

Each bead is crafted from recycled glass bottles and other glass items, which are crushed into a fine powder. This powder is then carefully placed into molds to create these exquisite beads. The process is entirely handmade, ensuring each bead is unique and full of character.

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

The technique used by the people of Krobo in Ghana to produce these recycled powder glass beads is a testament to their rich cultural heritage and commitment to sustainability. Trade beads hold significant historical importance in Ghana and across Africa, having been used for centuries in trade, rituals, and adornment. These beads are not only beautiful but also carry a deep connection to African history and culture.
