Note: Krobo Tribe in Ghana has used the same technique for centuries to produce those beads. Powder glass beads are made by crushing glass to a fine powder and heating till all the particles fuse together. Melted glad is poured into clay molds, with a cassava leaf stem used to make the hole. They are baked in an oven and the glass fuses and the cassava stem burns up.
