Ostrich eggshell beads used by the San of Kalahari to make the jewellery are made into a number of different kinds of items that serve as jewellery: necklaces, waist bead strings (belts), bracelets, headbands, aprons, anklets, and earrings. The beads are also sewn on skin bags or, in some cases, on clothing items, mainly by women.
