The
intricate and artistic twisting of thread is itself seen as an
embellishment by the tribal communities of India. They often weave
cotton thread into a broad band as a textured or patterned base, then
loop through buttons, beads, metallic droplets or whatever catches their
fancy. Beads, shells, cowries and feathers are simple but amazingly
creative means to adorn the body beautiful.
Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh and the
northeastern states of Assam, Nagaland and Mizoram top the list of
makers of such jewellery.
