Ubuntu Garnet Necklace

Ubuntu is an African philosophy which when translated means “I am what I am because of who we all are.”According to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, a person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, based from a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.

Our Ubuntu necklace captures this idea of togetherness with a design that highlights the beautiful and necessary linked relationship between ourselves and others. The circle stands for the interconnectedness of humanity.

The gold brass circle is stamped with the world UBUNTU. Hanging from it is a hand carved red garnet. The necklace is ruthenium plated and 22 inches long. Nickel Free.
