Did you know, the Maasai are one of the most popular and unique ethnic groups in Africa due to their long preserved culture.  There are seven dominant colors used in all Maasai beadwork. The red beads mean bravery as red is the color of a cow’s blood. Also, red means unity. The white beads mean health, peace, and purity because pure white milk from cows sustain the ethnic group and gives them good health.

The orange and yellow beads both represent hospitality. The yellow beads also symbolize the sun, fertility, and growth. The blue beads stand for the sky and energy. The Maasai believe their Gods reside in the skies as well. The green ones meanwhile depict health, land, and production because the cattle graze on the green grass of the land. The black stands for the people and the struggles they must endure in life.

When you are wearing Maasai jewelry, you are carrying the whole village on your body!
