  • Quite large 7x12mm early powder glass beads, on long 28-inch strand.
  • The strand is another way to date these beads. In the early 1970 to early 1980s the strand of all kinds of African beads were 28-30 inches - twice the length from a trater's thumb to his elbow. Then "shrink-flation" began and strands got progressively shorter. 
  • The colors are not flashy, but this is a set of beautifully made beads from a long gone era of Krobo beadmaking
