They are vintage lovers with an incredible aesthetic and their style is simply unpretentiously cool. A great inspiration for menswear!

          Massai have been using beads as adornment  and these handcrafted beadwork are quite representative of their culture. They represent key points of their culture such as beauty strength  tradition, marriage, warriorhood and their status, to name a few. 

The piece that is the most famous is the traditional wedding collar designed with several strands of beads, which is given to a new wife by her mother and represents the tribe as a whole. The traditional wedding collar is made  such that beaded strands are hanging off the collar and symbolize the number of cows that the wife will be given.

Each color bead symbolizes one part of their daily life and routine:

Red: Symbolizes bravery, strength and unity

Blue: Symbolizes energy, water and sustenance 

Green: Symbolizes the territory,  the land and nourishment 

Orange: Symbolizes warmth, friendship, generosity and hospitality

Yellow: Symbolizes fertility and growth
