- Beading is not just about the jewellery, it's about women empowerment.
Jennifer Pere (45 yr old)
'This is a cow’s hide. I have shaped into this design and now using this wire and beads to create a pattern. I use this needle to make a small hole into the hide.
We start teaching girls from the age of 13 on how to do beadwork. Girls as young as 8 can do simple designs like chains.
In the past, as Maasais we loved using red-coloured beads but now we have some developments.'
Over time, new designs have emerged through their interactions with other tribes like the Samburu & Pokot, and through client’s suggesting new designs.
They also tend to explore new ways of making the jewellery.
During a wedding ceremony, it is important that the bride be adorned in many layers of the beaded necklaces, as this is a sign of beauty and abundance.
