The Ju/’hoan and !Kung San women of Namibia continue a bead-making tradition passed down for thousands of years. These beads, created using an ancient technique, once served as personal adornments and tokens of exchange.
Ostrich eggshell beads have been used for over 50,000 years, representing one of the oldest forms of jewellery-making. Today, the San community remains the last to preserve this tradition, keeping a link to our shared history.
Responsibly sourced from ostrich farms, the eggshells are collected after the chicks have hatched. They are sterilized and transformed into these eco-conscious jewellery pieces, honouring both tradition and sustainability.
Over time, each necklace develops a unique patina, reflecting its wearer’s journey and adding a personal touch to the piece.
