Powder glass beads date all the way back to 970 C.E. in South Africa. In the modern era, the production of these beads is primarily located in Ghana, West Africa. Powder glass beads are made from finely ground glass shards recovered from unusable glass scraps such as broken windows, bottles, and plates reheated to create the glass beads.
