tribal jewelry
Ethnic body decorations
Tribal jewelry refers to ornamental pieces—necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings—made in styles associated with indigenous or traditional cultures.
The term covers both authentic pieces crafted by tribal peoples and mass-produced items borrowing their aesthetic: She collected tribal jewelry from her travels through West Africa.
The label is sometimes criticized when applied to generic "ethnic-looking" accessories sold without connection to actual tribal traditions.
