This Necklace is 21.5" and hand beaded by the Maasai people.  Made in Kenya, East Africa.  The necklaces are created and worn by women for weddings and marriage.

The profits from this purchase go toward Jane Kangethe's college education and her family.  They are a Christian family with three daughters.  None of the girls are circumcised and all are trying to get an education.  One of them was gang raped by those who oppose their freedom.  The family is now raising a hansom young boy.  I met Peter Kangethe 30 years ago when I was visiting Kenya for a college semester.  I am now 50 yrs old and I still support them in their dreams to make Africa a better place for women and men.
