Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The white bead is a significant symbol in Igbo culture, and it is often used in traditional ceremonies and rituals. In Igbo cosmology, white represents peace, purity, and perfection. The white bead is also associated with wealth, abundance, and prosperity. In some communities, the white bead is also seen as a sign of protection from evil forces.
The white bead is used in many traditional ceremonies, such as weddings, child naming ceremonies, and burial rites. It is also used to make jewelry and adorn traditional attire.
