Brazilian Indian Artifacts: Brazilian Indian Bead Artifacts

Natural Bead Jewelry

These Artifacts are hand-made in the Amazon-Basin area from the Jé Speaking tribes, Krikati, Canela, Gaivião and many other villages.

For generations, Native Brazilian Indians deep in the Amazon rain forest have lovingly and painstakingly created one-of-a-kind handcrafted jewelry from the best of what nature has to offer. Intricate “seed work”, textures, colors and patterns are combined to create each individual piece of art to be cherished.

- Individually handmade by Native Brazilian Indians; not from a factory.

- Seeds are authentic; no plastic or molded beads (unless noted).

Imagine YOUR self with....a well made hand-crafted object on your arm or neck, one of a kind design; that will bring a million eyes to yourself...and you can tell them all the work that is entailed and the uniqueness of these artifacts...

The small beads go through a long process before they are even made into a bracelet or a necklace. Later I will explain in greater detail, basically they have to go out into the jungle to get them sometimes cutting themselves getting the seeds because the plant's leaves cut. Then they have to put it in water for a whole month so they will sprout. Once they start sprout about an inch then they take off the sprout and have to grind a hole in each seed individually, which takes many hours to do. The smaller the beads the more work they take to make. After that if they want to make it black they "fry" it. There are only 2 colors brown and black.

Every seed and feather (as applicable) is exclusive, so imperfections...or as we like to think of them, “character marks” … are part of what make them a piece of art and a one-of-a-kind.

These necklaces took a lot of work to make...

It may seem a little expensive but that is because there are 15 individual necklaces and i am selling them all together.

The lady that is selling it told me that if the beads were bigger she would have sold if for less but since the beads are really small and they take a long time to make...

Each necklace would come out to be $6.66 a piece. (6.66 x 15 =99.9)
