Mixed Rondelle Recycled Glass Beads from Ghana in a Multicolor Strand for Creative Jewelry Making
Mixed rondelle recycled glass beads bring a varied palette to necklaces, bracelets and other jewelry-making projects. Their disk shape adds a distinct rhythm to strung designs, whether you use them throughout a piece or as colorful accents.
Made by the Krobo people of Ghana, these beads use a traditional powder-glass process: crushed glass is heated in clay molds until it fuses, while a cassava leaf stem forms the hole. The mixed assortment includes yellow beads, and some strands may have a matte finish, so color combinations and surface appearance can vary.
