Nuse, meaning "strength" in the Ewe language, describes the spirit of Mary Dzidzienyo, the talented Ghanaian artisan and author of this gorgeous design. Ideal for the stylish souls, this cotton hobo bag features a batik design in a palette of black and white hues, creating a splatter pattern for a refined look. On top of that, and as an eco-friendly accent, the accessory comes with recycled plastic beaded handles that add uniqueness to the piece, equipped with a linen lining.

I love the character of this necklace. The handmade recycled glass beads are colorful and unique. I have a few pieces of jewelry from Africa, this is a wonderful new addition to my collection. Perfect size and colors for summer.
