Product Review

Hailing from the villages of West Africa, these beautiful African waist beads are modeled after traditional Ghanaian coconut beads. Each set measures approximately 28-32" in size, and can be shortened to your liking by removing beads. Also known as vulcanite beads, these beads were traditionally made using recycled phono records cut up in a sequin-like fashion. Available in a variety of colors and sizes. Please note: a large majority of The Bead Chest products are handmade. Therefore, the tone, brightness, and/or color of the product received may very from the photo. Additionally, any sizes and/or bead counts mentioned are approximations and may vary up to 10-15% from the stated number.
