Yellow Krobo Recycled Glass Beads

Description: {Description}Yellow Krobo Recycled Glass Beads Krobo beads, crafted by the Krobo people of Ghana, are a type of African bead made from recycled glass. With a history spanning centuries, the bead-making process involves collecting glass bottles, crushing them into a fine powder, and molding the powdered glass into various shapes and sizes.

These beads, available in colors like blue, green, red, yellow, and black, often feature intricate designs created by layering different colors of glass powder. Widely used in traditional African jewelry and clothing, Krobo beads have also gained popularity in the global fashion industry. Beyond their aesthetic value, Krobo beads symbolize Ghana's rich cultural heritage and the resourcefulness of the Krobo people in transforming recycled glass into beautiful and functional works of art.
