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.

These beads are gorgeous! Maybe my favorite recycled glass I’ve purchased to date and i am a frequent shopper. They remind me of koy. Understated AND stunning

I loved all the colors (seaglass, blue, gradient blues) that I ordered. They came really quick and intact. They really helped me out when my wholesale vendor couldn’t come through with my order. I donated the beads as trophy lei’s for an girls surf contest Salty Sweet in Cocoa Beach, Florida. The women loved them.
Can I say what a large smile and with such glee …that’s how I felt when they arrived. Words can’t explain the beauty so here are some pictures . I will be decorating my costal home in the spring and ordering some for every room 🥰😍
