Take your pet's style to the next level with our incredible Mia Beaded Dog Collar - a stunning handmade ethical pet accessory featuring chic Maasai beadwork! "Rafiki," meaning "friend" in Swahili, reflects the bond between you and your pet. This Maasai beaded dog collar is handcrafted by skilled East African women artisans using traditional techniques, creating a durable and eye-catching accessory perfect for pets of all sizes.
What Makes the Mia Collar Special:
• Chic Maasai beadwork - Contemporary patterns hand-beaded with precision and care
• Durable chocolate leather base - Strong foundation for long-lasting wear
• Handcrafted by women artisans - Each collar made using traditional East African techniques
• Fair wage-focused - Supporting artisans with above-market compensation and benefits
• All sizes available - Perfect fit for every furry family member
• Unique character - Slight variations add individual style to each handmade piece
Premium Quality Construction: Our RAFIKI dog collars are as tough as they are beautiful! Handmade in East Africa, each beaded pet collar combines durability with stunning aesthetics. The secure attachment of hand-beaded rows to quality chocolate leather ensures your pet's collar will withstand daily adventures while maintaining its vibrant appearance.
Matching Leashes (and BIGGER Collars!) Are Available: Complete your pet's look with a matching handmade beaded leash! Custom leashes can be ordered for any of our collar designs and take approximately 4-6 weeks to receive after your order is placed. Similarly, if your "big boy" (or girl) won't fit in one of our readily available collars, you can order a larger size - it is $4 per extra 2 inches.
The Impact Behind Your Purchase: Every Mia collar purchase directly supports women artisans with fair wages and empowers them through sustainable employment. Beyond compensation and benefits for the artisans, 100% of additional net proceeds are invested in our innovative UhuruPads menstrual hygiene program - East Africa's first 100% compostable sanitary pad, keeping girls in school and changing lives.
