Unisex Short Beaded Neck Tie Necklace 02

Unisex short neck tie necklace handmade by the Maasai women in Tanzania.  Made out of authentic Maasai glass beads.  

Our short tie necklaces are created entirely by hand and no two are the same.   Variations in size and design may occur.  Each piece tells a story.  Beaded jewelry is part of the Maasai identity and through our collection, we tell their stories and preserve the traditions of this unique tribe.

Maasai women are skilled artisans who are known worldwide for their beautiful garments and beaded pieces.  Maasai people are an indigenous African ethnic group.  Maasai culture is highly patriarchal and it is the women who are hurt the most by issues of structural inequality.  With us working directly with them, they are finally given the opportunity to progress both socially and economically.

This unisex elegant short neck tie necklace is light weight and can be worn at any occassion.  It takes an average of 6 hours to make one necklace.
