The earliest powder glass beads were
found in present day Zimbabwe dating
back to 970 – 1000 CE; but from colonial
times to the present day, the main area of
powder glass bead manufacture is West
Africa-particularly the Yoruba tribes of
Africa – a population now settled within
Nigeria. Conversely, the tradition also
extends to Ghana, which is regarded as
the Bead Production Capital of the World,
where women perceive African waist
beads and have held a long fascination
with them, as ornamental and symbolic
adornment; and as well as signs of wealth,
aristocracy, and of femininity. There are
beads used to adorn babies during
naming ceremonies, while others are
worn by young adults to portray
femininity during puberty rites. Beads are
said to possess the power to attract and
evoke deep emotional responses. In
addition, they are believed to be signs of
success and affluence as well as spiritual
well being.
“…all over the continent of Africa, beads
were used once as a currency to trade
purchase gold, ivory and palm oil, spices
and weapons…”
Traditionally, a successful suitor would
commission a set of beads for the wrists,
neck, ankles, arms and waist of his bride,
which formed part of her dowry and the
foundation of her personal wealth. In
West Africa particularly, the tradition
became such that women wear multiple
strings of beads around her waist; and in
some cultures, the only person allowed to
remove them was her husband on her
wedding night. Some strings of beads
were adorned with bells, which was a
signal to let a partner know that the
woman was clean- meaning she is at the
proper stage where sexual intercourse is
allowed. In traditional Ghanaian culture,
the many strings of beads around the
bikini-line were used as an anchor about
which the menstrual cloth was strapped.
Folklore also attributes the wearing of a
bunch of waist beads to the definition of
the waist— meaning that it helped
women to hold their figures.
“…it is only now in these modern times
that waist beads are becoming a visible
fashion statement…”
Hidden from view underneath women’s
clothing is that waist beads increase
body-consciousness in a way that lingerie
does – they are provocative. The wearer
can take pleasure in knowing that they’re
wearing something special and beautiful
which will please their lover. Strings of
waist beads also force the wearer to be
aware of their size. Gain five pounds and
the beads will be the first to tell you. Since
they don’t stretch, like clothes do, they
simply roll up the waist until they find a
place to sit comfortably. Beads higher up
the body equal weight gain and beads
lower the body mean weight loss. This
means that waist beads are a simple
method of monitoring weight without the
aid scales.
It is only now in these modern times that
waist beads are becoming a visible
fashion statement. The wearing of waist
beads among the Asante tribe is still
popular and even fashionable today.
Waist-lines on clothes are getting lower
and lower and women are showing more
skin than ever, meaning that occasionally
waist beads are on show and turning a
few heads.
But what is clear is that our ancestors also
saw beads as a fashion statement - and so
do we!

Thousands of Malaysia Airlines employees have received letters of termination but most will be asked to rejoin the embattled carrier after a rebranding. The firm wants to become profitable again after a harrowing year. Malaysia Airlines on Monday laid out plans for an across-the-board "hard reset" during which the company would lay off 20,000 workers but ask 14,000 of them to return to an entirely new, restructured airline. The carrier plans to reinvent itself by metamorphosing into a new brand as of September 1 as it seeks to repair the damage to the airline's image suffered after two disastrous plane crashes in 2014. New Chief Executive Christoph Müller said the airline hoped to "stop the bleeding" in 2015, stabilize next year and start growing again by 2017. Turning over a new leaf In a first move, the carrier sent termination letters to its 20,000 employees as the airline changes its brand, with most of them to be rehired. However, some 6,000 would not be taken back on in a bid to save costs, the airline announced.
