Some collaborations go beyond the product. Bead by Bead was born from the encounter between Collanine Colorate and Okapia, an organization dedicated to education and training projects in Africa.

Every bead tells a story. Of hands that create, of women who learn, of opportunities.

The collection supports Okapia’s “Piccole Donne Crescono” project: 15% of the proceeds from product sales is donated to provide young women in the village of Kitutu, Congo, with the opportunity to build their own future through education and training programs.
