Orange and green Beaded Elephant

Recently on our travels we have discovered these wonderful beaded animals from South Africa and we just fell in love with them - and think you will do too.

Each animal is unique - hand crafted by women supported by Monkeybiz, an economic upliftment project dedicated to reviving the traditional craft of African beadwork.  They are helped to become financially independent through their work and to set up ultimately set up on their own.

This cute little beaded elephant with his orange stripes is one of our favourites.

He measures approximately 26cm (11") across by 26cm (11") high.
