The brass beads are meticulously handcrafted in the Ashanti region (Kumasi - Ghana) using the ancient lost wax casting technique. Each bead requires an individually carved wax mold that is destroyed during the creation process, making every bead a unique work of art.

The vibrant glass beads originate from Krobo land, Ghana, where skilled artisans recycle glass bottles and other materials. The glass is crushed into a fine powder, placed in molds, and fired in a traditional firewood kiln to produce stunning, colorful beads.

These beaded bracelets not only showcase the artistry of Ghanaian bead makers but also represent the cultural significance of trade beads in African history. Worn for centuries as symbols of status, beauty, and wealth, these beads carry a rich heritage that continues today.

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