At Luangisa African Gallery, we work directly with the Maasai women to produce and market high-end beaded jewelry based on traditional beading techniques infused with modern aesthetics.  Each piece tells a story.  Beaded jewelry is part of the Maasai identity and through our collection, we tell their stories and preserve the traditions of this unique tribe. Maasai women are skilled artisans who are known worldwide for their use of colorful beads.  Maasai culture is highly patriarchal and it is the women who are hurt the most by issues of structural inequality.  With us working directly with them, they are finally given the opportunity to progress both socially and economically.
