Jewellery: An expression of your beliefs

Beliefs come from the culture, which also render the human archetypal imagination. Hence, tribal jewellery are based more on natural symbols while that of the civilized world reflect more rational thoughts and complex thought patterns that inevitably show through the finer and more intricate designs. However, of late, it has been a trend to portray one’s self as simple and simplistic; frill designs are falling short ruling the major fashion trends. As evident from all that we may consider jewellery as an extension of human psychology.

So let’s start with the most rudimentary form of jewellery – the tribal ones that are also creating a sensation in the fashion world of recent. Firstly, it’s because of the diverse array of materials (leaves, flowers, bones, shells and wood; sometimes, metals), next, it is because of the hidden messages and good luck charms that stay associated, which makes them an indispensable part of the tribal cultures.

All these have popularized the Indian and African tribal jewelleries in the greater part of the fashion conscious civilized world and how much ever superstitious it may sound, many have benefited from the good luck they have brought. However, to enjoy that bit of good fortune, you need original tribal jewelry and not some upmarket boutique preparing them. Replica tribal jewelleries may be a thousand times better when it comes to quality and durability, but they don’t have that raw edge that’s essentially tribal.

So what are the jewelleries that the fashion world is considering the best of everything tribal? Firstly, these are the ankle bracelets (both hinge and horn stretchy varieties); the horn and bone necklaces and earrings and bangles made from wood and/or resins. They go well with either ethnic outfits or strictly jeans and tops and high boots; if you have an eye for animal prints, nothing shall compliment your choice more than the authentic tribal jewellery.
