These gems are procured from gracious Fula
women at the bustling, elbow-to-elbow, Medina Market in Conakry, Guinea
. We love the look of wearing many at once as they do. You will surely feel the warmth of the African sun radiating through each seed bead. Best for petite hands and wrists, they must be slowly, carefully and individually rolled on. They are water-safe, can be worn indefinitely, and will not fade or lose their Guinea glow!
GUINEA CHEMISE - $35 + $2 (s/h)


as worn by Carlos


This traditional, handcrafted shirt depicts the triangle of energetic resonance of the doundoun, sangban & kenkeni drums. As the sound rises and circulates it creates “Sabou Njouma”, a feeling of happiness and well being. At the foundation of the triangle is “Wombere”, togetherness (see above pic). This chemise is designed and worn by members of the group African Sabou Njouma as they continue to preserve and share the indigenous music of their fathers and forefathers from the village of Kourassa. We are selling it on their behalf.
