Crafted from recycled glass fragments, these beads are shaped in clay molds and fired in traditional kilns. The result is a unique, variegated translucency that captures the essence of Ghanaian bead-making. Each bead is meticulously polished to achieve its smooth, handmade finish.
The Krobo people employ a remarkable process that transforms broken glass into vibrant, symbolic beads. Using discarded glass items, they break the material into small fragments, mold it into intricate shapes, and fire it at high temperatures. This centuries-old technique preserves the glass’s original colors and translucency, making each bead truly one of a kind.
Trade beads like these have long played a vital role in African culture, serving as symbols of identity, wealth, and tradition. Today, they are prized by collectors, crafters, and jewelry enthusiasts around the world.
