Two rows of blue glass beads, carefully strung by hand, give this beaded necklace its clear, graphic elegance. Its design is inspired by the multi-strand necklaces of the Samburu in Northern Kenya and translates their characteristic form into a pared-back, contemporary piece.
Each bead is placed by hand, creating a piece of jewellery that combines traditional beadwork with a modern language of form.
The Unity Collection was developed together with the beaders of our WFTO-certified partner, Mashinani Works. It brings together the artisans' craftsmanship and celebrates tradition and community.
