Take a look at this exceptionally large strand of jumbo-sized blue recycled glass beads. Large beads such as these are hard to find and even harder to find in good condition. The journey from Africa can sometimes be unkind to such large beads! This strand is sure to make an impression wherever it goes. Use these beads as centerpieces for special jewelry, as adornments for interior design, or even as a wall hanging to decorate your favorite room. You will receive a 28-30" strand with approximately 28 beads. Each strand is unique and may vary slightly from strand pictured.
Recycled glass beads are a type of indigenously produced African bead from Ghana West Africa. These special beads are made using an old method that has been used for centuries. The glass itself is derived from a variety of recycled sources including old beverage and medicine bottles. The procedure for making the beads consists of a number of steps whereby powdered glass is poured into molds of clay and baked in a specialized oven. These beads are produced in large part by the Krobo tribe and are environmentally friendly. Because of the size of these beads, it is not uncommon for a strand to have a few beads with internal fractures. Non-USA buyers, please note that a heavy-weight surcharge may apply for this item. Please inquire in advance if you would like to pre-confirm this fee.
The beauty is turquoise blue. Azul blue, such a beautiful tropical ocean color. It’s large about the size comparison of a “Tootsie Roll Pop”. And it’s a heavier bead. It’s will be perfect for my outdoor chimes.
