Sunflower Yellow Love Bracelet

$30.00 Save $-30.00
Our summer collection was inspired by the Kenyan landscape & wildlife. We were drawn to the vibrant colors we see throughout nature: the touches of pink were inspired by flocks of pink flamingos wading in the Soda Lakes near Mai Mahiu. Our bright yellows came from sunny yellow Sesbania trees in bloom & Kenyan yellow weaver birds flying around the factory in the early morning. These colors fill us with joy and we cannot wait to wear them all summer long. 
  • Handmade in Maasai Mara, Kenya
  • Materials: Genuine-leather / glass beads
  • Size: New adjustable closure!  Easy sliding knot closure can open from 6”-10” for a more comfortable fit
  • One size fits all
  • Every product supports meaningful, full-time employment in Kenya!
