The Kenyan Collection - Evil Eye Beaded Dog Lead
The evil eye is the belief that a malevolent gaze can bring harm or misfortune. Wearing an evil eye talisman is thought to offer protection against such negative energy, safeguarding you from its effects.
Leads are not suitable for dogs that pull excessively or for dogs weighing over 50 pounds.
Introducing Evil Eye Beaded Dog lead: Featuring a striking pattern of the traditional "evil eye" design, rendered in rich blues and pristine whites. This lead combines vibrant beadwork with a protective symbol believed to ward off negative energy, offering both a stylish and meaningful accessory for your pet.
Each creation is meticulously handcrafted by skilled Maasai Mamas using premium, durable leather, with hand-cast buckles and clasps. Crafting one collar takes a Maasai Mama about a day, while a belt requires two days of dedicated beading. The beads are carefully hand-sewn onto the first layer of leather, followed by the addition of high-quality hardware and a second leather layer, which is glued and stitched for added softness and durability.
Our Maasai Mamas are encouraged to infuse each piece with their personal artistic touch, preserving the rich heritage and cultural integrity of their work. This commitment to individuality means that slight variations in design are part of the charm and uniqueness of each item, ensuring that no two are ever the same.
The Significance of Color:
-
Blue - Represents the color of the sky that provides water, energy, and sustenance for the Maasai Tribe and their livestock.
-
White: Reflects the purity and nourishment provided by cow’s milk, representing health and vitality.
