これは、リア・セレイと彼女のグループによって手作りされました。彼女は、ンゴングの村にあるビーディングサークルで27人の女性を統括しています。彼女たちは、私たちのティアドロップアクセサリーのほとんどを作っています。彼女たちは母親であり、祖母でもあります。売上の収益は、女性たちの間で分け合われ、家族の基本的なニーズを満たすための支援に役立てられています。
The craftsmanship is truly something special—you can feel the care in every bead, knowing these were made by a circle of mothers and grandmothers. They’ve got a nice weight to them that feels substantial without pulling on my ears, and the teardrop shape catches the light beautifully.
I was a little worried the beads might feel cheap, but the teardrop shape has a lovely weight and the colors are more vibrant in person. It's clear a lot of care went into the stringing. I've worn them twice already and they haven't snagged on anything.
The teardrop shape is really elegant, and you can tell the beading is done carefully by hand. I just wish the earrings were a touch lighter, since they have some weight to them after a few hours of wear.
