We've recycled red paper beads to create this strikingly delicate necklace. The paper beads are separated by silver accent beads and red seed beads.

(Approx. 19" long)

The beads were created by refugee women currently living in Kenya, women broken from war and HIV, caring for orphans in their community, but made whole together. The individual hand-rolled paper beads made from recycled magazine and calendar pages take approximately 15 minutes each to roll and varnish to make a unique bead that no one believes started as paper. The varnish makes them durable and water resistant. However, keep them away from water as much as you can, and they will stay in perfect condition for a long long time.
