Guatemalan Unakite and Recycled Paper Beaded Necklace, "United in Belief"

Working hard to improve their economic circumstances, the female artisans at Guatemala's Believe and Create for the Future proudly present this lovely necklace. These women draw inspiration from their belief that they can change their lives as they bead the unique necklace with unakite and handcrafted recycled paper beads. A colorful cotton tassel forms a pendant at the center. By finding new uses for unwanted paper, the artisans work to promote ecological preservation with this accessory.
