Leakey Collection Jewelry (Mother’s Day Giveaway)

May 18, 2009 by Kimberly · 29 Comments 

I’m excited to share about a special line of jewelry called the Leakey collection that’s made by Maasai women in Kenya. It is a great gift for moms. Founded in 2002 by Katy and Philip Leakey, the jewelry is hand made by the Maasai women and men of Kenya from eco-friendly materials. (Not only are the Maasai women paid for their work, 5% of the profits go back to supporting infrastructure in the Rift Valley of Kenya.)

We’re giving away a ZULUGRASS necklace and bracelet. Because zulugrass is light weight, it is versatile – it can be worn as a bracelet, necklace, hair tie etc. Strands are sold individually for $12.95 per strand and you can see a variety in spring colors here.

To enter, please tell me your favorite piece of Leakey jewelry in the “Comments” section below by Saturday, May 23rd at noon.
