Kazuri Fair Trade Jewellery - Summer Fashion 2010
Kazuri jewellery is hand made in Kenya by local women. The fair trade Jewellery made by Kazuri is bright and vibrant, Kazuri is a Swahili word meaning 'small and beautiful'. The jewellery definitely lives up to its name, every piece is made from many individual beads that are all 'small and beautiful'. Each bead is carefully hand-crafted by one of 400 women who create the jewellery in a small village outside Nairobi. The jewellery is made from ceramic, the process involves forming clay into beads, firing them and then hand glazing them with a vibrant range of different coloured paints, firing them again before stringing.
The Kazuri enterprise was started in 1975 by Lady Susan Wood. Lady Wood was born in a mud hut in the Belgian Congo to missionary parents. From a young age she was accustomed to living under difficult circumstances, a year after her birth her parents decided to return to England. To make this journey they had to travel on foot across central Africa, to board a steamer to Alexandria and then another boat to England. She and her siblings remained in England at boarding school whilst her parents returned to the Congo. During the second world war she trained at Oxford as a nurse, this is where she met Michael Wood who she would later marry.
Due to Michael's asthma they emigrated to Nairobi with their children where he ran a thriving surgery. They wished to experience Africa in a profound way, which caused them to move to Tanzania to live on a farm. This lady was a visionary committed to improving the lives of the people around her. Michael Wood and two others set up the African Medical and Research Foundation (AMRF) and its Flying Doctors service, providing the most inaccessible areas of Africa with emergency medical support whilst Lady Wood opened a clinic during the early days of the AMRF for mothers, their babies and farm workers with minor ailments. Her tireless work to provide a clinic for the local community ended when the Tanzanian government reclaimed the land. Undaunted the family travelled back to Nairobi, Kenya, where Lady Wood opened a small workshop making handmade beads called Kazuri.
The workshop began life as a small enterprise, but has now developed into a mini industry. At first just two local women were employed to assist Susan as they experimented with different processes for making ceramic beads. The first jewellery was made and became instantly popular, especially with tourists visiting Nairobi. Gradually the business expanded, now it employs over 400 local women. The women that work for Kazuri Jewellery are predominately single mothers who would otherwise be destitute. There is a huge shortage of work in Nairobi and the jobs provided by Kazuri Jewellery contributes towards the well being of many families in the area.
The company provides on site health care for the women and their closest family, and will absorb a high percentage of any other medical bills. They are committed to creating a happy working life for every worker.
Kazuri Jewellery is a member of the British Association for Fair Trade Shops (BAFTS) and the World Fair Trade Organisation.

What do you think of this birthday present?
I am going to fly my sister to Italy, then buy a massive yacht and go sailing, then have a hot air baloon ride, then I will buy her a Saleen sports car. If she wants anything along the way, she can have it. I even am planning on purchasing her $50,000 worth of clothes and jewelry, plus a private jet because I know she likes that and has always wanted her own plane. She wanted 8 gold bars for her birthday too but I only plan to give her 4. Today I saw a $62 million house on Yahoo and asked if she wanted it. I agreed. AM I missing anything? I feel like I should do more because she is my sister after all.
Yeah, Kivan your sister needs a good friend like ME to come along and help. Let me know when the trip is- I can cancel whatever I have planned.
