Crafted by skilled artisans in Namibia, this bracelet features hand-cut ostrich eggshell beads combined with glass bead accents. The eggshell, once used by San communities for practical tools and adornment, is carefully shaped and smoothed to highlight its natural texture and durability.

This piece reflects a long-standing tradition of working with organic materials from the environment, offering both cultural depth and distinctive design.

  • Handmade in Namibia

  • Materials: Ostrich eggshell, glass beads

Produced by Omba Arts Trust, a non profit organization that promotes artisan craft as supplemental income in the home for many Namibian women. 

From Omba: "Our artisans and artists live in rural and often very remote settlements. It is helpful for them to earn money while working from home with part-time craft production that ties in with their household responsibilities and seasonal tasks: subsistence agriculture, small-stock farming, fishing, and piecework on communal or commercial farms."
