A beautiful 3 strand bundle of powder glass African beads (including one strand each of pink, black, and blue), made by the people of Krobo Mountain (Ghana, West Africa ) and made to resemble old Venetian FANCY trade beads. They are made from bottles and other glass items that are turned into powder, then poured into molds in order to create this nice looking drum shaped beads. Decorations on the beads are made with a paste made of colored glass powder and water, which is applied using a thin wooden stalk. They are cooked a second time to fix the decor. The beads are handmade. This strand is especially long, giving you more beads for your money.
