Tribal Jewellery

Tribal jewellery is popular.  Wild geometric and jungle shapes represent an adventurous lifestyle, so relevant to the fast competitive way of living today.  These patterns have been inspired from distant cultures and the fight for survival.

Nomadic jewellery designs using natural materials like bone, brightly-painted wood, shell and pearls show a sharp drive to stand out - with a soulful honor of the past, but at the same time being aware of the future.

Angular pieces like square rings and bangles work well with long dresses, balancing the symmetry.  Try making jewellery using wood in vivid colors mixed with horn and leather to give a primitive, native look. Vary shape and texture mixing round wooden beads with long sharp bone or metal.

Market your tribal jewellery as dramatically as the design.  Explain to potential customers that the piece reflects their own identity and style.  Each design has its own meaning to show how driven the wearer is to survive in an ever-competitive society.
