Making Marigold: Beaders of Bulawayo

By Joni Brenner and Elizabeth Burroughs

Making Marigold: Beaders of Bulawayo is a portrait of a women's beading co-operative specialising in loomed beadwork, based in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Over 200 photographs reveal the sumptuous glamour of the Marigold beadwork and necklaces. Short, stand-alone narrative vignettes offer background insights into the making and development of the Marigold co-operative. How did these women, whose skilled practice and creative impulses evident in every necklace, perfect this practice? And what has sustained their efforts across the decades?
