New Round Brass Beads from the Ashanti People of Ghana

Discover the artistry and tradition with this exquisite strand of round brass beads, meticulously crafted by the Ashanti artisans of Ghana. Using the ancient lost wax technique, each bead tells a story of heritage and skilled craftsmanship.

  • Length of strand: Approximately 20 inches (51 cm) from bead to bead
  • Bead size: Each bead measures between 10 mm and 11 mm in diameter

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

Lost Wax Technique

The lost wax technique used in creating these brass beads involves crafting a unique wax mold for each bead, which is then encased in a clay mold. Once heated, the wax melts away leaving a detailed impression behind, which is then filled with molten brass. This labor-intensive process ensures that no two beads are exactly alike, reflecting the unique character of each piece.

Significance of Brass Beads in Ghana

In Ghanaian culture, brass beads are more than just decorative items. They are bearers of history, symbols of wealth and status, and cherished pieces that are passed down through generations. By owning a strand, you're embracing a piece of Ghanaian heritage and artistry.
