Item: Maasai Wedding Necklace

This authentic high quality Maasai beaded wedding necklace was beaded in the traditional Maasai fashion by the ladies of the Maasai Cooperative in Kenya, Africa. Traditionally, the necklace is beaded by the mother and presented by the father to the daugthter to be worn on her wedding day. The necklace was beaded on leather and adorned with beaded pendants capped by cowry shells. It measures 10" in diameter with 33" pendants. Wear it or display it as part of your authentic costume, or adapt it to suit your decor. One customer reported using it to frame a circular mirror in her hallway. What a delightful way to display this beautiful piece of work.

Aina Moja commissioned several of these beautiful wedding necklaces. All of them are created in the same meticulous fashion with the same colors, yet each is slightly different. For example, some have three diamonds on the bib, some have 2.
