Wear it alone against white or black and let Klein blue lead, or pair it with orange to heighten the tension between colours. It also holds its own within a stack of several bracelets, keeping a clear presence in the mix.
Vivid and uncompromising, Klein blue pushes blue into its most intense register. In Maasai symbolism, blue connects with sky and water, and with ideas of energy, sustenance and the flow of life; here that meaning is concentrated in a shade that immediately draws the eye.
Each bracelet is made in Kenya by Maasai women artisans, who join glass beads by hand and build the composition through repetition and detail. Bead jewellery belongs to a visual tradition shared within the community by women, men and children.
As this is a handcrafted piece, the secondary colours and bead arrangement may vary slightly from the photograph.
