Four tubular bracelets in blue and black glass beads bring traditional beadwork into a clear, contemporary form. Handwoven by Samburu and Maasai women in Northern Kenya, they take up a characteristic form of East African beadwork whose history is closely linked to regional exchange and trade.
The slim tube shape gives the bracelets a graphic look, while the interplay of blue and black creates an expressive contrast. They slip easily over the wrist and can be worn alone or stacked, for a subtle accent or a bolder look.
The Unity Collection was created together with the beaders of our WFTO-certified partner, Mashinani Works. It combines their craftsmanship with a shared design vision that carries traditional techniques into a new language of form.
