This long, delicate beaded necklace is hand-strung and finished by the women and youth of the Batoka Creative's self-empowerment group in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Created from the finest Miyuki glass seed beads, colours are interspersed with 24-carat gold-plated beads and adorned with a gold-plated brushed finish disk ring, utilizing the traditional hand skills of the local people in a contemporary way.

This colourway Quarrystone is inspired by the striated soil colours at our football field quarry, in the pattern Long Stripe. Three other patterns are available in this colour way - Checks, Dot Dot Dash and Short Stripe - allowing for easy merchandising and upselling of layered pieces. The necklace is long enough to be double-looped around the neck or looped on the wrist.

By purchasing this product, you are doing so much more than choosing a high quality, fashion forward product. Your purchase changes the lives of the group's members by providing a sustainable income in an area previously dependent on subsistence farming, allowing families to be fed, children to go to school and dreams to blossom. We thank you.

The piece comes in a branded drawstring calico bag with a small information card.
