Please note

Each necklace is beaded by hand, so bead placement and shades vary slightly from the photographs, and colours can differ between screens. The two photographs show the same necklace; one has the background edited to grey. The maker's stated size, 35 x 8 cm, appears to cover only part of the piece, so ask the shop for the full drop length if it matters for your wear.

Cultural context & artisan story

Layered bead necklaces are the glory of Maasai dress, worn stacked for weddings and ceremonies, and the colours carry meaning in Maasai beadwork: red for bravery and unity, white for peace and purity, blue for the sky, green for the land, orange and yellow for hospitality, black for the people. This piece gathers those colours into one cascading design made in Kenya.

Product description

Overview

A multi strand Maasai style bead necklace that cascades from collar to chest. More than fifteen strands of glass seed beads in red, yellow, orange, blue, green, black and white are gathered into two flat woven bands, with a centre column of large diamond shaped beads running down the middle and silver tone chains and disc drops swinging along the lower strands. It fastens with small metal hooks at the ends of the woven bands. This is a statement piece for weddings, cultural celebrations, stage and photography, worn over a plain neckline so the beadwork does the talking. It is the boldest piece in this maker's range: if you want the same colours in a quieter form, the shop's beaded cuff bracelets carry them in a single band. Wipe with a dry cloth and store flat or hung so the strands do not tangle.
