Fused Krobo Recycled Glass Beads (Ghana) – 12–14mm Large-Hole Round | ~45/Strand | Handmade African Trade Beads

Bold artisan color. Eco-friendly story. Large holes for easy stringing.

✨ Wearable culture, fused by hand. These Ghanaian Krobo beads are kiln-fused from recycled glass, then patterned by artisans—giving you color, texture, and heritage in every bead.

Meet your new favorite large-hole African trade beads. Each strand features approximately 45 fused Krobo beads (about 12–14mm) with 2.5–3mm holes—perfect for leather cord, elastic, macramé, kumihimo, wire-loops, and chunky stringing projects.

Handcrafted in Ghana using recycled glass, the beads are fired and fused for a rich marbled look with striking, hand-applied patterns. Expect vivid multicolored tones with organic variation—no two beads (or strands) are exactly alike.
