11. THE KROBO BEADMAKING TRADITION
The Krobo people of Ghana are internationally recognized for their mastery of recycled glass beadmaking.
For generations, Krobo artisans have transformed recycled glass into handcrafted beads that serve as artistic expressions, cultural materials, and trade goods. Their beadmaking tradition remains one of West Africa's most respected artisan practices.
The recycled glass process begins by collecting and repurposing discarded glass materials. Through skilled preparation, molding, and firing techniques, artisans transform these materials into beautiful handcrafted beads.
The fused bead technique allows multiple colors to be incorporated into a single bead, creating stripes, patterns, and decorative effects that distinguish Krobo beadmaking from other glass traditions.
Today, Krobo beads are admired worldwide by jewelry designers, museums, collectors, educators, and galleries who value authentic craftsmanship, sustainability, and cultural preservation.
