Description
Ull lukt nanu means - healer, comforter in her native language. She not only is a princess but is specially gifted as her name suggests. Pain and solace is subtle in her expression. The ear ornament labels her as one who is elevated in the healing arts. No hocus pocus, but her gifting is enhanced because of an impartation at birth and from the elders' leading in technique. She is so full of technique that few words need to be spoken to the viewer. Do we need healing? Stare into Ull lukt nanu and feel her impart to you the answer. As many Maasai has several names much like our first, nickname, middle name and last names, other interpretations of her name are " she who is predestined" and 'set apart beauty'. The seven white elongations on each side of her wrap represents her perfection of those gifts mentioned above. Few women are as gifted as she, so the choker was lengthened to represent a long life. We must also note that because she has such a long life designated, she also must suffer the gamut of trials in order to enable experiential knowledge to her subjects. White beads were selected from thousands and only the purest fired fianced beads went into the creation of the neckwear. Her blue is a representative of the sapphire that the prophet Ezekiel saw. All prophets wear sapphire colored tunics.
