These beaded animal
figurines are finely sculpted, intricately detailed, from wire and small glass beads by the Shona artists in Zimbabwe. Each piece is the culmination of many
hours of highly skilled work, patience and dedication. These beaded figurines bear a striking resemblance to their counterparts that roam the wild.
These unique figurines
are created by men and women from the surrounds of Mbare, Harare, giving them a
platform for their bead work skills, as well as the means to support themselves
and their families.
