- These beads are priced and sold in sets of 4
- Lost Wax Cast bicones from Ghana. Openwork, sold in sets of 4, slight variation in sizes, about 18x20mm
- Each of these beads is first made in wax. The wax is covered by clay, the clay is heated and the wax runs out through openings left for that purpose. Molten recycled metal is poured in. After cooling, each clay mold is broken open and the individually unique beads are removed, cleaned, and polished.
- In this long, delicate and laborious process it's inevitable that some beads are not perfect. That's normal and taken into account when pricing. Flaws are much less noticeable on smaller beads.
- See AFM-197 for a smaller in sets of 4 and AFM-2 for strands
