In Zulu beadwork, one finds a lot of diamond shape pattern and it is said that, that shape represents the shield which is a sign of protection. I'm going to base my Mafu necklace on some of the colours that are in this necklace (intshebe) and will try and get Thenjiwe (the lady that will bead the Mafu discs for me) to bead the shape aswell.
