  4. Kazuri Beads Factory
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Kazuri, derived from the Swahili word for "small and beautiful," was founded in 1975 by Lady Susan Wood in Nairobi, Kenya with not much but a love for collecting beads and a dream to create employment opportunities for women from the area. Thus a humble workshop with two employees emerged and a remarkable journey began. By the late 1980’s the operation had moved from Woods’ garden shed to a factory which employed over 100 people.

    Fast forward to the present, Kazuri remains a world-renowned brand and champion of sustainable, handcrafted jewelry. Every necklace, bracelet, and earring carries the essence of its maker's dedication and creativity, making it truly one-of-a-kind.

    Stocked in several countries and worn by fans like Meryl Streep, the brand continues in a long and rich heritage of adornment in Kenya while celebrating the country’s beauty and nature through sustainably crafted jewelry.
