African Trade Bead Bracelet

Visually striking and technically sophisticated,
African body ornaments often reflect a person's
life style, family situation and status.  Amulets
are also worn as protection against evil and to
appease the gods.  In West Africa gold jewelry
was worn by kings and chiefs as well as their
subjects and slaves.  This served as a visual
demonstration of the prestigious position
and power of the tribal leaders and the
community as a whole.  Much of Africa' s
jewelry still retains its ceremonial
significance today.
