Authentic African Beads - Crafted with Tradition
Brass Beads: Handmade in the Ashanti region of Ghana (Kumasi) using the ancient “Lost Wax” technique. Each brass bead is individually cast in a wax mold, which is destroyed after casting—making every bead one-of-a-kind.
Glass Beads: Sourced from Krobo land, Ghana, these beads are meticulously crafted from recycled glass bottles and other discarded glass materials. The glass is crushed into a fine powder, placed into molds, and fired in a traditional firewood kiln to create vibrant and unique beads.
Trade beads like these have played an essential role in African history, serving as a medium of exchange, storytelling, and cultural expression for centuries.
YOUR BRACELET WILL BE IDENTICAL TO THE BRACELET SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPH (GIVEN NORMAL VARIATION SINCE THESE BEADS ARE ALL COMPLETELY HANDMADE).
