Archive: bracelets


When traveling I very often find unique pieces of jewelry. I have a little collection of bracelets, necklaces and rings. I try to find pieces made from materials indigenous to the country or one that are commonly used by the artisans of a certain place. These bracelets are made of horn and come from Tanzania. I love graphic pattern and their edginess. They look strong and bold -- just how I feel when I think of Africa.
