Each of the seven colours used in the collection can be used to convey a negative or positive meaning.
Shapes also all have meaning:
Circles: symbolize infinite possibilities and harmony, creating a sense of power, energy and love.
Triangles, squares and rectangles: symbolize stability and trust as the shape rests on a solid base. This creates a sense of shared power and energy and brings to mind harmony between the past, present and future.
Size: The Zulu love letter: 9,5cm Height x 7,5cm Width; Length including necklace 44cm.
Materials: Brown and grey glass beads and beading thread.
