Set of 12 Maasai Napkinrings. Unique item.
Blue Theme.
Influenced by a recent trip to Kenya and blown away by the beauty of the land and its people we have commissioned a small series of unique inspirational products. A selection of Kenyan Ornaments, Fabrics & Gifts. These napkinrings are made by Maasai Tribe female artisans with ties to The Enasoit Camp & Conservancy Beaders in the Laikipia Region.
The colours used in the beadwork are selected for their beauty and are also symbolic, having important meanings understood by the tribe. The main colours used in Maasai beadwork are; Red – stands for bravery and unity, Yellow or Orange – symbolises hospitality, White – represents peace, purity, and health, Blue – represents energy and the sky, Green – symbolises health and land, Black – represents the people and the struggles they must endure.
Today, beading serves as a major source of income for the Maasai people who struggle to maintain their way of life in a constantly changing Africa. By purchasing this product, you are directly helping to support the Maasai women, their families and helping them to maintain their culture.
Kenya 🇰🇪 Love 💛.
