beadwork

Last year, Von Furstenberg introduced the Samburu women's intricate, sophisticated beadwork into her spring collection.

Lolosoli persuaded women in her village to start a business selling their intricate traditional beadwork to tourists.

Smitten with the colorful beadwork, she invited Lolosoli to collaborate on her 2010 collection.

A moccasin, flaps decorated with undulating red, white and black beadwork, was still on the foot.

Beadwork is very strong, and this is beginning to look tattered, a sure sign that it has seen long service.

They were all dressed out in new light-blue capotes and corduroy trousers, which they tied at the knee with beadwork garters.

I bring her fine skins of the otter, the beaver, and the fawn; beadwork also from the villages and bracelets of copper and pearl.

Many naked bodies were covered with beadwork, silks, damask, and even red and green table-cloths trimmed with gold and silver.
