They are very creative, beautiful, comfortable, long lasting, and quite importantly, environmentally-friendly; They are predominantly made from natural resources obtained on the island, usually in the form of beads, coconut shells, coral reefs, straws, feathers, buttons, hemps and sea shells.

These materials are used to make earrings, bracelets, necklaces, bangles and rings.

The Rastafarian colours of black, red, green and gold are evident in these creations. Most are made as a one size fits all design to enable their quick and easy availability to all persons.
