The rock candy bracelet is part of our darling candy collection and adds a bright pop of color with classic mixed metals to any look. Handmade locally right here in Ft. Worth, TX with crushed glass beads and recycled ammunition sourced from our artisan partners in Ghana and Ethiopia. Bracelets are on an elastic enclosure and measure approximately 3.5" in diameter.
Recycled ammunition: bullet casings and mixed metals are recycled and melted down. The mold are carved by hand to fashion each unique bead. Most of our recycled ammunition beads are sourced with our partners in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Glass beads: powder glass beads are made by crushing glass to a fine powder and heating it so that the particles fuse together. The glass is then 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. Each bead is unique and fashioned by hand by the krobo people of Ghana, Africa.
