| Hill Tribe Silver is the name commonly used for handmade beads, pendants and findings made by Thai Karen Tribal Villagers in the Northern Thai "Gold Triangle " regions. All tribes do silver smithing, and wear beads. |
|
|
| |
Hill Tribe silver is created with high purity silver from 98%-99% purity and will not tarnish as sterling silver. Since each bead is hand-crafted, size and weight may vary. Hill Tribe silver is usually oxidized to a dark gray color, giving the metal a more natural looking patina. |

The Karen Hill tribes believe that powerful energy resides in all natural phenomenon. |
|
| These skilled silversmiths create beads that are true reflections of nature, which provide a great source of inspiration for creating beautiful jewelry. |
|
| Thai Karen Hill tribes are ethnic minorities who live in the high land as well as remote areas deep in mountains in the northern and southwestern parts of Thailand. Although these ethnic minorities have been in Thailand for generations or have migrated from neighbouring countries for over the past 50 years, many of them are still denied registration for an identification card. |
|
|
| Hill tribes can broadly be divided into two types: lowland and highland dwellers. The hill tribe |
| people who live in the low valleys tend to be agriculturalists growing rice and corn in |
| addition to Silver smithing . Hill Tribes have been wrongly associated with |
| deforestation, illicit drug production, drug trafficking and even communist activity. |
| They are ousted by society and face daily the stigmas of problems that are a result |
| of their non-citizen status. Karen women are excellent weavers, producing rather mellow |
| red, orange, pink and white cotton cloth. Unmarried girls in both groups may be |
| distinguished by their white clothing. |
|
Karen Hill Tribe Silver is unique, an art onto itself. The Hill Tribe silversmiths use traditional
tribal methods which are passed down from generation to generation. |
