    • A new style of hoop earrings from our Pembetatu collection.

      Pembetatu :: Triangle
      The triangle, or pembetatu, decorates the painted faces of young Maasai boys on their journey into adulthood, and features in silver charms that hang from beaded adornments worn by Maasai women.

      Symbols are a visual representation of philosophy, and the triangle is one that can be used to convey balance. We dedicate this collection to the pembetatu to symbolise our hopes to balance preserving traditional Maasai beadwork with bringing a contemporary aesthetic to our designs.

    • 1.75" gold fill hoops, 3.5, tassels.

    • Long glass beaded tassels decorated with blocks of 24K gold plated beads.

      Use a soft, lint free cloth to keep your sterling silver and 14k gold filled jewelry looking shiny.
      To protect your jewelry pieces, each piece should be individually placed in a pouch or soft lined box to keep it from being scratched or tangled.
      Store your jewelry in a dry place, away from moisture.
