MAASAI WOMEN ART VINTAGE COLLECTION 2014-2015 NOT JUST JEWELRY
BEADING FOR A BETTER FUTURE Tanzania Maasai Women Art is a local self-sustained non for profit organization that helps empowering the Maasai women communities in Northern Tanzania by generating an alternative income through their traditional beading skills. Thanks to Art Director Francesca Torri Soldini who has been volunteering her time and expertise from the very beginning of this project in 2006, and IED (Istituto Europeo di Design) with its students from all over the world, Maasai tradition and beading techniques have remained the same while innovative and unique new designs are created every year to suit the international market.
