African Wedding – Mali Wedding Beads
by Paula Gaete.
(Watertown, Massachusetts)
People often ask me, “What are the most colorful African beads?” The answer is simple: Mali Wedding Beads.
In one strand of these beautiful African wedding beads, you will find beads varying in up to 40 different colors, shapes, and designs.
These handmade beads are said to be given to brides on their wedding days. Most were originally Czech-made, and traded in Africa. They can be up to 100 years old, but are often newer.
