TRIBAL MUSE carries Tribal Jewelry, Ethnic Jewellery and Quality Fashion Jewelry from around the world. Celebrate with us the creative spirit and symbolism expressed through jewelry, both old and new.
ABOUT TRIBAL JEWELRY: You will find that Tribal Jewelry styles and patterns are unique to specific geographic areas. In addition to being beautiful adornments, these pieces hold special cultural meaning that communicates messages about the wearer's status or the celebrations where they are worn. The colors are natures colors...such as the rich blues of turquoise and lapis, the glowing reds of carnelian and coral, the creamy whites of pearl and bone, the toasty warm hues of amber and horn...elements that have been used since antiquity by jewelry artisans.
Handcrafted Tribal Jewelry is rarely uniformly shaped or exactly symmetrical such as with machine crafted jewelry, and may often have missing pieces, wear patterns, or debris. Many of these pieces have traveled around the world from village to village, and generation to generation and these irregularities are part of that charm and heritage. We sell our old tribal pieces with the patina (if any) intact, since collectors value it so highly. Patina can usually be easily removed with a mild jewelry cleaner, if desired.
Tribal Muse does not own nor sell any archeological relics or items deemed National Treasures, as such articles rightfully belong to the people of the country where they were found.
CONTEMPORARY JEWELRY: Tribal Muse also carries Contemporary Ethnic and Fashion Jewelry pieces that have been carefully selected to assure the highest quality. Jewelry is a recognized form of artistry. At Tribal Muse each piece, new or old, tells a beautiful story all its own.
