African Zulu Beaded Married Woman's Belt South Africa

$81.60 $96.00

This is a wonderful Vintage Zulu Colorful Beaded Belt from South Africa. For many Zulu beaded jewelry, garments, and other accessories became important markers of identity. Bead work was a visual marker of social position, marital status, ethnic affiliation and location of the family’s homeland. Woven grass belts worn by Zulu women identify the wearer as a married woman with children. Zulu bead work has been valued as currency, as decoration, and as a marker of identity. Bead work became a status symbol and an important item of personal expression as well. Stylistic variations of bead work such as pattern, color and color sequence indicate area or group affiliation. Colors and patterns take on more personally expressive meanings. This is a lovely old beaded Zulu belt would be a great addition to your home or collection.
