Using traditional bead-making techniques, the key rings are hand-made with recycled glass.

Broken, unusable or scrap glass is finely ground with wooden mortal and pestle and poured into moulds made from special locally dug clay. Each mould typically contains several small wells each of which will form a single design.  In the middle of every well is a cassava stalk. The moulds are fired in locally made kilns until the glass fuses and the cassava leaf burns off to reveal a hole in the mould.  They are then removed, cooled and washed with sand and water before being dried.
