These handcrafted recycled African glass beads, vintage and unique, are created by Krobo artisans in Ghana. The process involves crushing discarded glass bottles, placing the material into ceramic molds, and firing each bead by hand. These traditional methods have been passed down for generations, giving each bead its meaningful cultural value.
Slight variations in color, size, and texture are natural and contribute to the charm and authenticity of every strand. Each bead has a slightly matte, rustic finish — a signature look of true Krobo craftsmanship.
