Struggling to find a wedding gift for the happy couple or engagement? Surprise them with a unique & unusual gift... The Maasai tribe of Africa is well known for their traditional handmade beaded jewellery which includes colourful necklaces, pendant & bracelets. Did you know, Maasai women set aside time every day to meet & make beaded jewellery. Beadwork is worn according to age a social status. An unmarried woman wears a large flat beaded disk around her neck. A woman getting married wears an elaborate beaded neck piece on her wedding day, once married she will wear a long necklace with colourful blue beads. The colours used in beadwork are not only selected for their beauty but also have symbolic meanings which is unique to each tribe. Red stands for bravery & unity, white represents peace, health & purity. Blue represents energy & the colour of the sky. I made this mosaic by hand, depicting a portrait of a Maasai bride on her wedding day. The happy bride has silver earrings & colourful beaded neck piece. I made this mosaic with porcelain tiles, glass, beads & metal on wood. (For indoor use only). This listing is available for immediate dispatch. International shoppers welcome!
