Kazuri Beads Factory

Beads play an important role in Kenya’s culture, with different tribes that make and use them. During a visit at Kazuri Beads Factory you can learn more about the materials used, the meanings of the different colours and how they are made. Established in 1975, this fair-trade cooperative creates beautifully handcrafted ceramic beads and jewellery. With a commitment to empowering local women, the factory provides employment opportunities and sustainable income. Of course you can also get some for yourself or your loved ones – the perfect souvenirs for years and years to keep.
