Our story
From Maasai land to the world
Rooted in Kenyan highlands craft — built for hands, homes, and stages far beyond the savanna.
House of beads
Nasipa Beadit
Nasipa Beadit maps ancestral colour — red for bravery, blue for sky and water, green for land, white for purity — into jewellery, hats, dresses, pots, and the small sacred objects of daily life. Each bead is strung by hand so the pattern keeps the knowledge of the women who teach it.
House of hide
Seley Leather
Seley Leather cuts full-grain hide into bags, belts, and wallets with architectural discipline — soft structure, clean edges, hardware that lasts. When beadwork meets leather, the house signature appears: modern silhouette, ceremonial pulse.

Language of the beads
Every colour carries a story from Maasai land

School Beadwork Club
Learners are taught how hand beadwork is patterned, tensioned, and finished — so the craft lives beyond a single collection. Partner with us for school programmes and corporate skill days that honour the hands behind the colour.
Built to wow the world — without losing the hand
We design for global stages while remaining loyal to Kenyan makers. Browse, commission, or partner — take Maasai colour home with care.
