THE BEADING PROJECT
Each bracelet has been made by a survivor of Gender Based Violence.
100% of the proceeds go back to these women and The Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children.
The Ubuntu Bracelet
We accept
- Description
A symbolic gemstone bracelet inspired by the African philosophy of Ubuntu: “I am because we are.”
Created as a reminder of connection, compassion, and collective strength, the Ubuntu Bracelet honours the belief that our humanity is deeply interconnected.
Each bracelet is handmade as part of the Beading Project created with the Kolisi Foundation and the Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children. Proceeds support the Kolisi Foundation’s work to address gender-based violence and uplift communities across South Africa, while helping to cover fair labour for the women who create each piece.
Finished with a Mini Brass Africa Disc, the bracelet pays tribute to our shared humanity, the richness of the African continent, and the strength found in unity through diversity.
A bracelet made by many hands, carrying one powerful truth: we rise together.
