Notes
	Abstract:	A new Ngwane bride appears at gala occasions wearing a cape of colored cloth, covered with fine beadwork strips. The strips are made by the woman’s relatives who collectively construct the cape. This cloth dating from the 1960s has 16 strips that include both old and new beads, suggesting some were recycled from previous generations. Its beadwork motifs include traditional geometric patterns as well as representations of crosses, telephone poles, automobiles, and houses. The great variation of patterns on this cape indicates the interaction of bead workers from many regions, as well as local innovations.
