Wood pendant necklace, 'Adinkra Sankofa'





By Emily
Wonderfully Carved Pendant
This is a distinctive, unusual necklace that I hang as a piece of art when Im not wearing it. Pricing is very reasonable for something that can upgrade both your wardrobe and your home!

Very nice piece! I turned it into an ornament
I bought this to turn into a Holiday ornament for my tree that has all African ornaments. Very fine craftsmanship.
Braided bead necklace, 'Sosongo in Blue'





By Gretchen
What a knock out!
The colors are beautiful together. The necklace holds its shape well when you wear it. It is unusual and attractive.
