Beaded jewellery such as this light blue beaded bangle bracelet with colourful patches traditionally indicate age and social status in the Maasai culture and are handmade by Maasai women. Sometimes, specific necklaces are created to commemorate important life events like engagements and marriage. Worn by both men and women.

Each bead that is used by the Maasai has meaning behind it. In this cuff bracelet, blue symbolizes sustenance, energy, and the bright blue sky which provides water for the people and their cattle.

Note: This design of bracelets is available in many choices of colours

Final product may not be as shown…these are individually handcrafted and selection of beads, designs, etc. will have the same high-quality artisanship but may not be exactly as depicted in the photographs.
