Wear a story that spans generations. This multistrand Maasai bead necklace is handcrafted by women of the Maasai tribe in rural Kenya — an age-old art form passed from mother to daughter, bead by bead, color by color.

No two are exactly alike. Each piece is a truly unique work of art, strung by hand from small glass beads laid out on trays and threaded with intention and pride.

Product Details:

  • Approximately 22" long
  • Handcrafted by Maasai women artisans in rural Kenya
  • Fair trade certified
  • No two pieces are identical

The Language of Color:

In Maasai culture, every bead color carries deep symbolic meaning:

  • Red — bravery, unity, and blood
  • White — peace, purity, and health
  • Blue — energy and the sky; rain that feeds the cattle
  • Orange & Yellow — hospitality; visitors are welcomed with milk from orange gourds
  • Green — health and the land
  • Black — the people and the struggles they endure

Maasai beadwork embodies the whole of their culture — beauty, strength, tradition, warriorhood, and a deep love for their community. When you wear this necklace, you carry all of that with you.

When you choose KyngSia Designs, you wear a story worth telling.
