The neck or Waist rings formerly worn by Ndebele women varied considerably in size and shape and in a variety of colors. Made by the winding of a continuous string of beads around a circular straw or grass base. Characteristic element of young unmarried women’s ceremonial attire. After marriage, copper or brass neck rings replace them, indicating a woman’s new status. Beaded neck rings are seldom heavy. Although bulky, they are usually strung over cloth or grass. Rings like these are worn in combination with other bead work items. A wonderful item to adorn your home or add to your collection.
