You will receive a 24" strand with approximately 80 beads. Recycled glass beads are a type of indigenously produced African bead from Ghana West Africa. These beautiful recycled beads are made using an old method that has been used for centuries. The glass itself is derived from a variety of recycled sources including old beverage and medicine bottles. The procedure for making the beads consists of a number of steps whereby powdered glass is poured into molds of clay and baked in a specialized oven. These beads are produced in large part by the Krobo tribe and are environmentally friendly. Two strands pictured. Each strand is sold individually. • MADE OF 100% RECYCLED GLASS: These authentic African beads are made of 100% recycled glass. Master artisans collect used cola bottles, broken windows, and other recycled materials which are then crushed down into a fine powder before being transformed into these beautiful ethnic beads. Great for your own necklaces, bracelets, and jewelry, or can be worn as-is! • WHAT YOU GET: For each unit purchased, you will receive a full 24" strand which consists of approximately 80 beads.
