Masai
Markets in Nairobi; Masai Markets in Nairobi
were started by Masai women who wanted to sell directly
to visitors. Masai Markets have blossomed over the
years. For a wonderful selection of arts and crafts,
wooden carvings and beadwork, you can't go wrong at
the Nairobi Masai Markets. These are held around the
city at different venues on different days.(see below)
Not exclusively sold by the "Masai" these
vibrant, colorful markets sell mainly tourist fare
ranging from wooden sculptures, beaded necklaces,
batik wall hangings, shoes, soap stone carvings, sisal
bags, kikois, textiles and a whole host of other exciting
goods. All Maasai Markets items
are Kenyan and the range of goods on offer is impressive.
The nice thing about buying items from these markets
is that sometimes (but not always) you are dealing with
the actual people who make the craft items.
You
can see ladies threading beads and making jewellery
right in front of you, and if you talk to the traders
it's easy to find people who are selling their own sculptures
or craft items. Haggling is expected and if you like
this you're in for a treat! Maasai Markets rule is generally
to offer between half and two thirds of the initial
price and carry on from there....!
