Feel the Vibrant Pulse of Out of Africa - Jewelry

I'm Jackie Said, and I'm the heart behind the authentic, affordable, handcrafted jewelry you see here. Though born and raised in America, my marriage introduced me to the beauty of African culture, and my love for its art was truly shaped by the rich textures, vibrant colors, and meaningful traditions I encountered during my travels to Kenya. What began as a simple fascination with the African communities, their jewelry, and their intricate beadwork soon evolved into a passionate journey. I felt compelled to share the incredible beauty of African craftsmanship with others. Every piece I offer carries the spirit of Kenya – a celebration of heritage, resilience, and boundless creativity. I'm committed to celebrating locally sourced African materials and the traditional techniques passed down through generations. In essence, I share wearable art that tells a story. My mission is simple: to make this cultural beauty affordable and accessible to everyone. Through my work, I honor my roots and strive to empower local artisans and uplift my African heritage.

Sharing crafted African Excellence

“When you wear Out of Africa - Jewelry, you’re not just wearing a one of a kind piece — you’re wearing and carrying a cultural legacy.”
