24mm Fused Krobo Recycled Glass Focal Bead – Red Abstract
A one-of-a-kind fused glass focal, handmade in Ghana for bold jewelry statements.
Meet a bead that commands attention.
This 24mm Fused Krobo Recycled Glass Focal Bead is handcrafted by Krobo artisans in Ghana using centuries-old glass-fusing techniques. Finely ground recycled glass is layered in molds and kiln-fired to create deep, organic color fusion — never painted, never mass-produced.
The rich red base merges with black and white abstract streaks, producing a modern-art aesthetic rooted in African heritage. No two fused beads ever emerge the same, making each focal a true collector’s piece.
Large 3–4mm center hole allows easy threading on leather, cotton cord, or wire — perfect for statement necklaces, men’s bracelets, or gallery-style jewelry.
When you purchase this bead, you support sustainable artisan livelihoods and keep Krobo glass traditions alive.

Children & Safety
Not intended for use by children. Beads may present a choking hazard and should be kept out of reach of young children
