African Glass Bead Bundle – Multicolor Krobo Rounds + Focal Beads
A Fresh Collision of Color, Scale & Ghanaian Craftsmanship.
Create with color that refuses to be ordinary.
The Color Mosaic Designer Collection™ pairs approximately 40–45 handcrafted Krobo fused round glass beads with two oversized Krobo fused bicone focal beads in a fresh multicolor palette of sky blue, lime green, coral-red, and ivory white.
The 13–14 mm rounds establish playful color rhythm throughout the design, while two dramatically scaled bicones provide ready-made focal points. Their generous 5–8 mm holes expand the possibilities for substantial cords, fibers, leather, and creative multi-strand constructions.
Handcrafted in Ghana from recycled glass, this professionally coordinated collection gives jewelry designers and makers a versatile palette for statement jewelry, colorful capsule collections, mixed-media work, and contemporary accessories.

CRAFTSMANSHIP & CULTURAL CONTEXT
Krobo glass beadmaking is an established artisan tradition associated with Krobo communities in Ghana's Eastern Region. Contemporary Krobo beadmakers continue working with glass through skilled forming and decorative processes, including the creative reuse of glass materials.
Differences in shape, dimensions, surface, coloration, and pattern placement are characteristic of handcrafted production and contribute to the individuality of each bead.
Aadampo presents these beads as contemporary Ghanaian artisan materials without assigning undocumented ceremonial, spiritual, or symbolic meanings to their colors or patterns.
