These great beads are made by the Krobo People of Ghana, Africa. Powder glass beads are made by crushing glass to a fine powder and heating it so that the particles fuse together. The glass is then poured into clay molds, with a cassava leaf stem used to make the hole. They are baked in an oven and the glass fuses and the cassava stem burns up. This technique has been used in Africa for centuries.
The beads are beautiful as expected. I would say they are more blue than grey.

About Opaque White 18mm
At first I thought they looked like little powdered donuts☺️But, when I paired them with 30mm raw wood beads & knotted the 1mm jute in-between each, the result was gorgeous !!!
