Yawanawa Beaded Earrings
Handmade with love by the Yawanawa tribe in Acre, Brazil.
The Yawanawa earrings feature tribal designs or “Kenê” as they call the images they use for body painting. They represent sacred animals like the Boa Constrictor and the Butterfly.
These earrings are pure Yawanawa tribal elegance. They fall delicately down the shoulders. Apart from pure style they also bring spiritual power and protection. The sacred forces of the forest are forever alive in Yawanawa tribal tradition.
The Yawanawa beadwork is mostly done by the women of the tribe. They spend long hours on this arduous labor of love. Each bead is knotted one by one by hand. In general they make the patterns by heart. All inspired in the visions of their sacred medicine ceremonies.
All pieces are unique.
