Metal Beads Nigeria
Description
Nigeria is renowned for its elaborate metal beads adorned with captivating designs that convey notions of wealth, fertility, and social standing. These metal beads exhibit a diverse range of shapes, sizes, and intricate patterns.
This strand is not intended to be a ready-to-wear necklace. Although the strand can be worn "as is," the raffia holding it together is not durable and may break with use. For this reason, we recommend that you restring the beads before wearing them.
