Special Instructions

The San Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert in Namibia apply their traditional skills to create jewelry, often with natural resources and materials available to them. Largely isolated from colonialism until the last century, San Bushmen women create intricate pieces of jewelry using wild seeds, pieces of tree roots, horns, bone, leather, tortoiseshell and most importantly, beads created from ostrich eggshell.
