About Love Incantations

Waist Beads originate all throughout Africa, the tale we like most is that waist beads were originally used to hold up a sort of make shift pad and then evolved into a piece of jewelry meant for romance and marriage to express femininity.

Today we see waist beads worn all across the global diaspora, as an expression of femininity, self love, weight loss/gain tracking and cultural love and homage to those before us.

Love Incantations waist beads are all about wellness. Our beads are made with the intent to signify an individuals sense of self love a black and feminine person. We use large quantities, often entirely, of gemstone which are what you call crystals once they are cut down and shaped. The reason being that stones hold individual structural properties and what some see as meta-physical, spiritual, and energetic values, that if worn, those specific values can be attributed to the one who wears them.

This has been done for centuries across cultures - for what seems to have been from the moment we were able to identify differences in them. From middle eastern and Mediterranean talisman, to Egyptian scarabs, we must be on to something.
