These Necklaces are Hand Rolled in Swaziland.  The women in the Manzini Market take old magazines and roll them into beads.  They are then lacquered to keep their shape and to add water resistance. Making these necklaces is a very labor intensive process, one necklace can take upwards of three days to complete. Yet the women love to make them and its perfect for anyone who is in to recycling ;)

These strands are all around 33" and can be worn many different ways.  Doubled or tripled up as a necklace, as bangles or around your waist.  As each necklace is hand made bead size and color does vary.
