  • Strands of 12 openwork beads with curves, 17x10mm
  • These artisanally cast beads, made in India, are reminiscent of Baoule lost wax castings for West Africa
  • Polished to a soft glow, not too shiny
  • Their size and shape are consistent, but they retain enough traces of their handmade origins to distinguish them from machine mass produced castings
  • Holes are less than 1mm, not big enough for leather
  • Light enough for earrings, smooth enough for bracelets, and offering eye-catching shapes for necklaces, these work well with most glass and stone beads, as well as resin, bone, horn, wood and other organics.
