The Guinness World Records (GWR) has adjudged a Ghanaian beader, Juliana Gharbin, as the creator of the world's largest bead sculpture.

33-year-old Juliana Gharbin made the GWR attempt on March 1, 2025. She made the beaded bag in 10 days with support from the 'Jules Beads Team', made up of eight others, including her trainees.

When she announced her attempt, Juliana Gharbin stated that she and her team would make a beaded bag measuring seven metres in diameter, which she believed would project Ghana to the world. The team would also incorporate some Adinkra symbols into the beading.

She later disclosed in another media interview that she decided to do the bead sculpture because the GWR initially rejected her application to bead for longer hours and suggested a sculpture, which she agreed to.
