Our original hand made West African waist beads have stemmed from various areas of the African Diaspora. Waist beads can be traced back to ancient Egypt as egyptians dancers wore them as a form of  jewelry around their waist. Waist beads hold various meanings to why women wear them, such as for weight loss, promoting fertility, womanhood, or even sensual significance. But nevertheless any body type, any race, any background can rock these beautiful beads. Experience the true African culture through our waist beads.
