Beads Necklace: Projecting Fashion And Beauty In Ghana’s Culture

The krobo beads necklace is projecting fashion and beauty in Ghana’s culture.

The origins of beadmaking in Ghana are unknown, but the great majority of powder glass beads produced today is made by Ashanti and Krobo craftsmen and women. Krobo bead making has been documented to date from as early as the 1920s but despite limited archaeological evidence, it is believed that Ghanaian powder glass bead making dates further back. Bead making in Ghana was first documented by John Barbot in 1746.[1] Beads still play important roles in Krobo society, be it in rituals of birth, coming of age, marriage, or death.
