Blue Striped Krobo Kente Glass Beads | Handcrafted Powdered Glass Beads from Ghana | Approx. 17 Beads

Where vibrant blue meets luminous white, these Krobo glass beads bring heritage-inspired color and contemporary design together in every strand.

Bold cobalt blue, golden yellow, and cocoa brown stripes give these Krobo Powdered Glass Tube Beads a commanding graphic presence. Individually handcrafted by skilled Krobo artisans in Ghana from recycled glass, each bead reflects traditional powdered-glass expertise while offering designers a distinctive material for contemporary jewelry.

The generous tube profile creates strong visual rhythm in statement necklaces, bracelets, earrings, wearable art, and gallery-inspired collections. Their saturated blue body pairs beautifully with brass, gold-toned findings, leather, wood, gemstones, and complementary African beads.

Each strand is individually made, so subtle differences in shape, color placement, surface texture, and dimensions are expected expressions of artisan production.
