Beaded necklaces, also known as Okamas in Embera language are worn by a woman to tell her history and role in the community. The beadworks have the purpose to protect a woman’s heart, empowering her and highlighting her beauty.

This Okama is full of symbolism and reflective of the Embera Cosmovision; patterns and colour codes express a rich culture where fauna, flora and deep spirituality play a big role.
