Traditional Krobo Bead-Making Technique

The people of Krobo in Ghana create these beads using a centuries-old tradition. Recycled glass bottles are crushed into a fine powder, placed into hand-carved clay molds, and fired in a firewood kiln. Natural dyes and molds shape the beads into their distinctive flower design. For brass elements, artisans use the ancient lost wax technique, pouring molten brass into wax molds that are later melted away to reveal the final bead. These bead bracelets honor the legacy of African trade beads, once a vital part of cultural exchange and commerce across West Africa.
