Grey Seed and Kitenge Strand Necklace
The Imfibinga seed, also known as "river bead," is found all over East Africa most commonly near river beds where this tropical wild grass flourishes. Once these polished grain-like seeds mature, a natural hole is formed in the middle lending itself to African beading for centuries.
This African seed, rich in history, has been paired with kitenge, a traditional African fabric as equally rich in its history, in a fun display of African fashion.

Kenyan Market Artisan Partnership
Over the years, Amani has sought creative ways to support training for the marginalized women who come through her gate. We often work with local artisans who partner with Amani to ensure that overhead is met without cost to the women.
Amani has worked with the same artisans for years, creating lasting relationships with the larger community of Nairobi, Kenya. This partnership is one way for us to reach outside of our center and support the local economy. We are proud to partner with trusted creative entrepreneurs!
