The powdered glass is carefully placed into molds and fired in kilns to form these beautiful beads. Each bead is 100% ручной работы, showcasing the dedication and skill of Ghanaian artisans.
Процесс украшения: What sets these Venetian eye-style beads apart is the intricate decoration. Krobo artisans use glass fragments and powdered glass, combined with natural dyes, to craft vibrant patterns. Detailed motifs are etched or painted onto the beads using fine tools, enhancing their unique character.
Процесс обжига: After decoration, the beads are fired in kilns at high temperatures. This process fuses the glass powder, setting the designs permanently and giving the beads their smooth, polished finish.
