Beaded Angels on a Stand
Handmade beaded angels from Kenya are beautifully crafted decorative items that showcase the intricate beadwork skills of Kenyan artisans. These angels are created using a wire frame, which provides the structure for the figure. The artisans then hand-thread small, colorful glass beads onto the wire to form the angel’s body, wings, and halo.
Each beaded angel features delicate details, such as the flowing lines of the wings, the serene expression of the face, and the elegant outline of the robe. The choice of bead colors can vary, often incorporating vibrant hues or more traditional gold and white to symbolize purity and divinity.
These beaded angels are typically small to medium-sized, making them perfect for use as ornaments on Christmas trees, decorative accents in homes, or meaningful gifts for special occasions. They reflect the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship of Kenya, transforming simple materials into intricate and symbolic works of art.
