The Ghanaian bracelet is representative of the overall culture and tradition that is preserved within the country. From generations to generations, these bracelets preserve history, values, and the overall gist of what it means to be Ghanaian. From the pure black beads to multi-colored beads, these all have an individual meaning and all serve a collective purpose in conveying a cultural message. The black beads represent faith, strength, and wisdom while the colorful beads represent riches, prosperity, and royalty. These all serve a collective purpose for representing Ghanaian culture. When I first received this bracelet from my aunt who brought it from Ghana, I was indifferent to it. I viewed the bracelet as just another object that I could wear and was creatively distinct from my other accessories. However, as she began to discuss how she views Ghanaian culture and fashion it changed my indifference. I became ecstatic because I had something where I could represent my identity. The bracelet transcends just a fashion piece and is a statement of my heritage and history. It serves as a reminder that I am always representing Ghana and motivates me to put my best foot forward in everything that I do.
