Product info

Stunning leather dog leads made by the tribes people of magical Kenya and beautifully hand beaded in various designs and colours.

'Earth' is made with shades of brown, black, white and gold coloured beads, 'Bright' is multi-coloured, 'Sky' features shades of gold and browns with sky blue and 'Pastel' has soft pinks, yellows, oranges, greens and blues and 'Pride' is very proud indeed! All in various patterns, shades and designs. Or go for stripes in vibrant blue or red shades. No lead is ever the same.

Masai people have beaded necklaces and wristbands for decades to tell a story of the wearer, their social and marital status, age and key events in their life.

The Masai women handcraft each individual lead using quality dark brown leather which they adorn with colourful beads along the length of the lead.

These leads are 44 inches long (approx 3.5 foot) and available in two widths (except Pride which, due to the design, is only available in 3/4" width). The 1/2" lead, with its smaller buckle and clasp, is designed for use with toy breeds and small dogs (collars up to 13 inches). The 3/4" wide lead is for medium and large dogs (collars from 14 inches) and also suits the hound collars. For safety reasons please choose a lead width that matches the collar width.

Important - the bead colours and designs vary from lead to lead and from those pictured. The images simply give an idea of the colours of the beads used and the variety of designs. The Maasai women are given total free range to express their artistic flair on each and every design, to encourage and safe guard the integrity of their culture. This is the beauty of this product.

Matching collars also available.

Treat the leather well and it will grow even more beautiful with age. To clean, rinse in warm water then treat with Neatsfoot Oil for waterproofing or saddle soap. This will keep the leather healthy and supple. Avoid contact with salt (sea) water and chemicals (e.g. cleaning products, flea treatments).

I recently purchased a lead after I was given a Masai Collar for my Dachsund. I searched for a matching lead and found one on your website. The lead is very striking and colourful and of high quality and I am very pleased with this purchase.
