  • A strand of yellow Sandcast Recycled Glass Beads strung on string 30" long. The beads are around 1x4 mm. These recycled glass beads were handcrafted in Ghana, Africa by crushing old, discarded glass, adding colorant and then pouring the powder into clay molds. The stem of a local plant is added, this burns away during firing, leaving a hole for stringing. These tiny beads are the most labour intensive. The beads are fired in a woodburning earthen oven. Ghana is famous for this type of bead.
  • A strand of opaque robin's egg blue (maybe just a bit lighter) Disk Recycled Glass beads on string 22" long. These are great spacer beads adding a lively accent. These recycled beads were bought directly from the small factory in Accra, Ghana where the artisans hand make the beads in the labor intensive method of their ancestors from crushing glass to baking the final product in wood ovens.
