Nasimiyu (it sounds like nice to meet you:) Wekeasa was born in Kenya, but her mother is from Uganda. She grew up in a family with 40 children, what gave her a deep sense of commitment to tribes - we can read at her website.

Today Nasimiyu is famous jewelry designer, her works are the favourite ones of many celebrities. Every piece of Nasimiyu is unique and handmade. Prices starts from a few hundreds of US dollars.
