The warrior cuff; traditionally, Maasai male warriors are adorned with beaded armour, which is gifted to them by the proud women in their lives. This collection preserves the traditional ways in which these pieces are made in the village, using thread salvaged from old grain sacks and boning cut from plastic canisters.

Your chosen piece is 100% handmade by one of the 120 Maasai beaders in Tanzania, so no two pieces will ever be exactly the same. With different hands crafting each piece, we celebrate the uniqueness of the slight irregularities and differences between them, truly making them one of a kind. 

Handmade with love in Tanzania.
