The brass beads are skillfully handcrafted in the Ashanti region (Kumasi, Ghana) using the ancient Lost Wax technique. Each bead requires an individual wax mold, which is meticulously shaped and destroyed after casting, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind.

The vibrant glass beads originate from the Krobo region of Ghana, where artisans repurpose recycled bottles and glass materials. The glass is crushed into a fine powder, placed into specialized molds, and fired in a traditional firewood kiln to form these stunning beads. This eco-friendly technique has been passed down for generations, preserving the rich heritage of Ghanaian bead-making.

Trade beads have long played a crucial role in African culture, symbolizing wealth, status, and historical trade exchanges across the continent. Wearing this African beaded bracelet connects you to a legacy of craftsmanship and timeless beauty.
