Flexy Ndebele Traditional Long Beaded Neck Hoop (Isigolwani)

Beautiful African handmade beaded necklace with a colourful necktie. Organic and plastic Ndebele beads. It is light and comfortable to wear. Stylish and versatile for all occasions.

There are five main colours represented: red and dark red, yellow to gold, sky blue, green, and sometimes pink. The colours give an intensified symbolic meaning to the Ndebele. They can mean status or power of the home's owners, offer prayer, announce a marriage in the home, or can represent a current

These beads traditionally incorporated colours in order to communicate information about the wearer: her class, the ties that she has to other women in her community or family who made the attire, and her interest in marriage and family. Owing to the fact that the relationship between generations of women is so deeply significant to the process of making these garbs, ideas of what it means to be a woman in Ndebele culture, and who a person is in the social status of their community are literally and figuratively woven into the designs of these garments.
