These black clay beads are made by hand in Mali - each one is free form and unique, and the patterns on the beads may vary. Paired with beads made from recycled paper - this necklace is an eco-friendly gem. The paper beads are coated with an acrylic lacquer, making them safe for everyday wear, but this necklace should not be worn to shower or swim.
