The Kenyan Collection - Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow (YTT) Belt - Standard Width

Introducing The YTT Belt - Standard with a width of 1 1/4 inches : featuring inspiration from the vibrant blooms of Kenya, mesmerizing gradient of colors that transition from deep purple to pale lavender to almost white in an elegant, random pattern. Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, this belt beautifully captures the evolving beauty of these flowers, offering a unique and artistic touch to any outfit. Treat yourself or a loved one to this exquisite accessory, and celebrate timeless style with a touch of global flair.  Whether paired with jeans and a T-shirt or used as a bold statement over a tunic or simple dress, it effortlessly elevates your look.

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:

• Purple: Represents wealth, pride, and creativity, showcasing the Maasai Tribe’s vibrant spirit and craftsmanship.
• Green: Echoes the land that nurtures and sustains life, signifying nourishment, growth, and territorial protection.
• White - Represents the color of cow’s milk that provides sustained nourishment. White symbolizes purity and the health of the Maasai Tribe and their livestock.

Our products are more than just accessories—they are crafted to be cherished and enjoyed. While we keep a significant stock on hand, some items may need to be custom-made in Kenya. If your order requires production, we will notify you within 48 hours. Thank you for your understanding and for supporting our handcrafted collection.
