Beaded Bracelets 3/4" wide Part II

The Kenyan Collection - Beaded Bracelets

Discover the vibrant charm of our Beaded Bracelets, each 3/4 inch wide and available in sizes Small (7 inches), Medium (7.5 inches), Large (8 inches), and X-Large (8.5 inches).

Every bracelet is meticulously handcrafted by skilled Maasai Mamas using high-quality, durable leather, complemented by hand-cast buckles and clasps. The beads are carefully hand-sewn onto the first layer of leather. Our Nairobi workshop then adds the hardware and a second layer of leather, glued and stitched to ensure both 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:

• Red: Symbolizes bravery, strength, and unity, reflecting the Maasai Tribe’s resilience and determination.
• Purple: Represents wealth, pride, and creativity, showcasing the Maasai Tribe’s vibrant spirit and craftsmanship.
• Blue: Mirrors the sky, providing water and sustenance for both the Maasai people and their livestock.
• Green: Echoes the land that nurtures and sustains life, signifying nourishment, growth, and territorial protection.
• Orange: Reminds of the gourd used to share milk with guests, embodying hospitality, generosity, and warmth.
• Yellow: Represents the sun’s role in fostering growth and sustaining life, symbolizing fertility and prosperity.
• White: Reflects the purity and nourishment provided by cow’s milk, representing health and vitality.
• Black: Symbolizes the people’s unity, harmony, and strength in facing daily challenges.
