Tapping in to connect to a not so distant part of yourself, the Planes of Traverse series of waist beads takes you on an ancient modern celebration of classical African craftsmanship. Four different styles representing the four corners of the continent, highlighting decorative ornamental design and style. Choose between West Africa, South Africa, East Africa or North Africa! An updated passport won't be needed for this trip!
The Islamic influenced style of jewelry from North Africa has always caught my eye! The large silver amulets with incredible detail, huge pieces of Amber, and intricate chain work. Thinking about how I can bring A Moorish/Berber look to waist beads, I came up with Planes Of Traverse: North Africa.
A one strand waist bead with 2 strand elements. Made with Ethiopian White Metal beads, Carnelian, Lapis and Turquoise semi-precious stones, with Large beads of Amber and a 4-strand talismans tail hangs in the back - or wherever you place it!
You can upgrade this style with a Sterling Silver Clasp.

Due to the delicateness of the Ethiopian beads and porous semi-precious stones, this style is not recommended to bath in.
* All waist beads are made with a gold or silver-toned base metal clasp.
