Influenced by a recent trip to Kenya and blown away by the beauty of the land and its people we have commissioned a series of one-off inspirational products ahead of Christmas. A selection of Kenyan Ornaments, Fabrics & Gifts. These Tree Ornaments are a unique set of 12 made by Massai Tribe  Beaders in the Kajiado region south of Nairobi. They are made of Maasai Beads & Leather.

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.

Set of 12 as pictured. Mixed designs.

Kenya 🇰🇪 Love 💛.
