Discover the enchanting allure of our New handcrafted African brass beads from the skilled artisans of the Ashanti/Asante tribes in Ghana, West Africa. These exquisite beads are meticulously created using the ancient "Lost wax" technique, where each bead is individually cast from a unique wax model that is destroyed to reveal the art within.
- Length of Strand: Approximately 20 inches (51 cm) from bead to bead
- Bead Size: Approximately 22 mm x 12 mm each
YOUR STRAND WILL BE IDENTICAL TO THE STRAND SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPH (GIVEN NORMAL VARIATION SINCE THESE BEADS ARE ALL COMPLETELY HANDMADE).
Each bead's journey begins with a handcrafted wax model, meticulously carved and then encased in a clay mold. The wax is melted away, leaving a hollow form into which molten brass is poured, creating beads rich in history and character.
Our Ghanaian brass beads not only embody the rich cultural heritage of the region but also reflect the high value placed on artistry and craftsmanship. Perfect for jewelry making, fashion accessories, or as a collector's item, these beads connect you to the vibrant traditions of Ghana.
