Worked bead by bead on a loom built especially for it, this choker is defined by its subtle shift from deep blue into black. Its clear, graphic design gives it a modern presence, while the gradual change of colour reflects the idea behind the Unity Collection: women moving towards one another and finding shared strength in their connection.
The design was created in a joint workshop with the beaders of our WFTO-certified partner, Mashinani Works, in Northern Kenya. Their craftsmanship and the shared design process shape a piece that translates traditional beadwork into a contemporary form.
As the signature piece of the Unity Collection, the choker stands for the connecting power of craft, collaboration and design.
