Handmade Jewellery by Sidai Designs
Sidai Designs collaborates with Maasai women in Tanzania to create handmade contemporary jewellery and homeware. Jewellery is of great importance in the Maasai culture and so are the techniques. The handmade glass bead jewellery of Sidai Designs is therefore deeply rooted in the traditional Maasai bead embroidery techniques, whereas its visual design is always inspired by contemporary aesthetics. Every step, from conception and design to the finished, high-quality piece of jewellery, is done with special attention to detail.
At Sidai Designs the name says it all. Because: "Sidai" means "beautiful" in Maa, the Maasai language. Beautiful, too, is every single piece of jewellery that the Maasai women are making from glass beads.
