Afi's Anklets : 'Asaase Ye Duru'
Afi's adornments and ritual products are named and inspired by various deities, Abosom, Orisa, Neteru, forces of Nature. They may or may not aid you in your own personal relationship with these forces of Nature.
All adornments are blessed with oils, charged in Nature and prayed over, made specifically with each individual in mind. No beading arrangement is the same (images are examples of previous beads made). Our beads are made from seed or glass bead laced onto elastic string. All beads are made to be worn for a certain amount of time. We suggest leaving the beads on until they break. Once beads break (which they are guaranteed to within weeks or months) this means the 'work' of your beads is complete. We suggest thanking them for aiding you, discard of seed/glass beads by burying them in the Earth and recycling elastic string.
PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
Please include your waist measurements in 'Notes and Instruction' box at checkout.
