Same Sky Golden Nugget Glass Bead Necklace


The world has been inspired by the story of the Same Sky women artisans in Kigali, Rwanda, who were living survivors of war and violence in that region. That they were able to endure and even transcend their ugly experience, and create breathtaking jewelry art with their bare hands, is a triumph in empowerment that the entire world delights to hear about.


Their inspiring story continues as long as their hands continue to create these delicate glass beads crocheted into jewelries. The Same Sky golden nugget glass bead necklace here is a very stunning evidence of how their scarred hands and spirits could radiate such warmth and brilliance despite their adversities.

The necklace is a cheerful golden yellow, made with the signature hand-blown glass beads which are a trademark of the Same Sky women artisans.  A smaller rope made of seed beads comprises the area of the necklace closer to the neck, with a magnetic closure joining the ends together.

With each purchase of Same Sky necklaces, Same Sky women artisans earn a decent wage that supports their families and allow them to rebuild their lives.
