These beautiful recycled glass beads are handmade by artisans in the West African country of Ghana. Each bead is individually handcrafted through a traditional process passed down generation to generation. The steps involve crushing glass into tiny pieces, placing it in a mold, and then heating the crushed glass at high temperatures in a clay oven. Different types of glass are used including old cola bottles, broken tiles and windows, and other types of repurposed glass. The beads on this strand measure approximately 8-9 x 10-11mm with a hole size of approximately 2mm. Each strand measures about 26". Get your strand today!
I can’t say enough great things about The Beadchest. I was contacted within 30 minutes of placing my order to correct an issue with my address, and my order (which was aobut 10 strands of recycled glass beads, was shippped same day and received around noon the folllowing day without expedited shipping! I'd previously purchased a couple strands of the same beads locally and paid exactly twice the amount.... never again! I’ll be ordering from The Beadchest from here on out. Thank you for the outstanding customer service and beautiful reccled glass beads!
Love the shade and size of these rose glass beads. Used them to make bracelets. Will definitely purchase more. Thank you Bead Chest for always supplying top quality beads and supplies.
