The brass beads are meticulously crafted in the Ashanti region of Ghana (Kumasi) using the ancient "Lost Wax" technique. Each bead is formed using a handmade wax mold, which is destroyed after casting, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind.

The stunning glass beads originate from Krobo Land, Ghana. These beads are made from recycled bottles and glass items, crushed into a fine powder, placed in molds, and fired in a traditional firewood kiln. This eco-friendly process has been practiced for centuries, creating beads that are both sustainable and beautiful.

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

Trade beads hold a significant cultural and historical value in Ghana and across Africa. These beads were once used as a form of currency and remain an essential part of African heritage, worn in celebrations and ceremonies.
