The Africa and Asia chapters portray the vibrant and diverse influences of the jewelry traditions of East and West Africa, China, Tibet, Nepal, India, and Central Asia. Nature highlights the freshness and appeal of jewelry created with organic materials: wood, seeds, bone, horn, shells, coral, pearls, and more. Fiber and Metal explore new twists in texture and structure demonstrating that beaded jewelry, while drawing on tradition, is passionately alive. The Contempo chapter serves up a visual feast of designs created with Contemporary American Art Glass, space-age dichroic glass, and an ecclectic mix of found objects. Once prized for their ethnographic and historical interest, today beads and beaded jewelry are also recognized as important art forms.
