The result is again a beautiful collection of bracelets decorated with beads, shells, and seeds from Kenya. You can adjust the self-tensioning knot according to the size of your hand (children's, women's, men's). They were specifically made for you by the girls Aquiline, Ashly, Beryl, Eugine, Eunice, Evvy, Grace, Christine, Iddah, Jesca, Josiah, Katka, Molly, Sally, Sharone, Sheril, Trovencia, Vivian, Zdenka, and Zonica.
