   Extractions: Throughout the world, ethnic groups are characterized and identified by dress and ornamentation. The Maasai are, perhaps, one of the most widely recognized people in terms of fashion and decoration, sporting bright colors, intricate patterns, and jewelry that dangles, jingles, and catches the eye. The Maasai conjure up popular images of young brides weighted with beaded ornamentation, numerous, collar necklaces that rhythmically move when they dance, headdresses that drape and accent the facial features, and brightly colored bangles wrapped tightly around forearms. However, while the Maasai have become widely recognized for their beaded ornaments, few westerners have taken the time to understand the history, symbolism, and social meaning of the craft. Beadwork became increasingly popular after 1900 when the Maasai began trading with Europeans in nearby Kenya and Tanzania for beads made out of glass and plastic, but it has always been an important aspect of their culture. Traditionally local raw materials such as seeds, skins, copper, bone, gourd and wood were used in the craft. Maasai women have always sat together between their daily tasks of looking after the children, milking the cows, cooking, and constructing homes and animal pens to sit together and make beaded jewelry. To this day beadwork is an important means through which women demonstrate their social understanding and creative capability. Jewelry is created mostly for its beauty, which is a very important aspect of Maasai culture. But jewelry is also created and given in the Maasai community to signify special relationships, such as a young couple engaged to be married, or on special occasions, such as the celebration of a successful lion hunt, or worn for one of many ceremonies, like the naming ceremony, or the warrior ceremony, which indicate a rite of passage in the life sequence of the Maasai.

   Extractions: Bead necklaces are worn by Saraguro women both for daily wear and for special occasions. Beadworking is done mainly by Saraguro women, although a few men also do beadwork. The first necklace shown below (top left) is from the 1960s. Other necklaces from this period were woven with the same basic pattern, variations consisting primarily in numbers of rows and in color combinations. Since the 1980s (all the rest shown) there has been a continuous development of new patterns and styles of necklace beadwork. Also, more recently, Saraguros have been beading bracelets and "lizard" ( largato ) necklaces (shown on the fifth row), both of which are worn by men as well as by women.

    The beadwork featured is made by Dawn. Each piece is individually created and put together with lots of thought and discretion.

    Extractions: The beadwork featured is made by Dawn. Each piece is individually created and put together with lots of thought and discretion. No two pieces are ever exactly alike and while some flow easily and just happen, others will take lots of measuring, visualizing, experimenting, and contemplation. All beadwork is done with "real" South Dakota deer and antelope hides. We use the natural tanning process called brain tanned, which was used by the American Indian for years. The hides are tanned with animal brains which leaves them a beautiful white color and some of them are smoked to get the golden brown color. We believe that a lot of work and care is put into a beaded piece and to use commercial tanned leather would be a compromise that we are just not willing to make. Medicine Bags: Small bags approximately 2.5 inches wide by 4 to 5 inches Long. Your choice between the white or smoked brain tanned deer hide. Each bag comes with a card attached which explains the meaning of the medicine bag. Flute Bags: Approximately 6 inches wide and the length is usually 4 to 6 inches longer than the flute it covers. I have been using a nice trade wool for the main bag, the beadwork is done on brain tanned white or smoked deer hide and sewn to the wool cover. The closure at the top of the bag is a pull string style using the deer hide. Fringes are usually around the closure, but more can be added to suit your taste.

    Extractions: by the Beach I'm sure that some of you were wondering just exactly what happened to Mom and I. Well, we're here by the beach - in Wilmington, North Carolina to be exact. We still don't have everything unpacked but we are finally starting to get back into the swing of things - and that means that we are getting to do a little bit of beading and crocheting and knitting and ... I'm sure that you understand what I'm talking about. I am finding myself inspired here near the beach. Sometimes, things so dramatic such as a move halfway across the Nation, can supply a kick start to one's muse. Sometimes I wish that there were more hours in the day so that I could accomplish more. I'm glad that Summer is approaching as I have never really been a lover of Winter and the cold. The beading that I have done has been fun and somewhat different from my usual stuff. One thing in particular that I am proud of is this necklace on the right. I call it Golden Citrus and the mix of gold, fuchsia, pink and orange is definitely a different color mix for me, but one that I have found that I just love.

" Miinens " is the fruit of the hawthorn tree, miinensagaawunzh . Perhaps seed beads were named for this tree because its 5-lobed leaves reminded the women of hands. They may have learned from the Ursuline nuns who taught bead embroidery in the early 1700's that the hawthorn's thorny branches were used for Christ's crown of thorns, and so felt the tree was sacred to the Europeans, who brought seed beads, this gift of beauty and skill.

15. Zulu BeadWork Home Page
    beadwork in the Zulu cultural tradition.  
    http://minotaur.marques.co.za/clients/zulu/
    
    Extractions: Those who have travelled in South Africa and spent some of their time in the province of KwaZulu/Natal, might have been fortunate enough to have seen something of the colourful beadwork for which the Zulu in that part of the country are well known. Decorative beadwork is sold at many outlets in the region and in major centres throughout the countery, where some of these beaded trinkets have been offered to souvenir huners as " Zulu love letters ". To appreciate the true significance of traditional Zulu beadwork, however, one has to understand how effectively the Zulu have integrated social values into their arts and crafts. Traditional colours, colour combinations and patterns are still found in modern Zulu beadwork but the real eloquence is rapidly subsiding under the pressures of urbanization and culture change. In the World Wide Web page that you are about to view, Hilgard S. Schoeman , a nationally recognized expert, explains the often misinterpreted issues surrounding an art form that has become increasingly commercialized. He writes as follows: "Traditional Zulu beadwork, arguably one of the most singular examples of this craft, was at one time far more than a merely decorative art of weaving small glass beads into aesthetically pleasing patterns. First-hand empirical research has shown that these designs were a surprisingly articulate vehicle of communication that helped to regulate behaviour between individuals of opposite gender."

We also feature Pueblo beadwork, which we pick up mainly at Zuni Pueblo and Cochiti Pueblo in New Mexico. The Ute work we carry is from locals, or from the Ute tribe near Vernal Utah. We also feature Southern Ute work, which we purchase on our buying trips near Cortez, Colorado. Goshiute work is either local, or purchased from residents of the Skull Valley Reservation located to the west of us towards the Nevada border. Occasionally we get some Nez Perce' , Ojibwa and Choctaw beaded items through acquaintances we have met over the years. Many of our bead work artists have had their work displayed in museums across the west, featured in national art magazines and have had many local write ups in the Salt Lake Tribune for their work.

    Extractions: Native American Art > Beadwork American Indian Languages American Indian Tribes What's new on our site today! Native American Beadwork Originally, Native American beads were carved from natural materials like shells, coral, turquoise and other stones, copper and silver, wood, amber, ivory, and animal bones, horns, and teeth. Glass beads were not used until the colonists brought them from Europe 500 years ago, but like horses, they quickly became part of American Indian culture. Today glass beads, particularly fine seed beads, are the primary materials for traditional beaders of many tribes. There are as many different Native American beading traditions, designs, styles and stitches as there are tribes and nations. Plains Indian beadwork is best known, with its intricate peyote stitch beading and bone hairpipe chokers, but there are many kinds of beadwork traditions throughout North America, from the wampum belts of the eastern Indians to the dentalium strands of the west coast Indians, from the floral beadwork of the northern Indians to the shell and turquoise heishi beads of the southwest Indians, and everything in between. Beads were a common trade item since ancient times, so it wasn't surprising to see abalone shells from the west coast in Cherokee beadwork or quahog wampum from the east coast in Chippewa beadwork, even before the Europeans arrived and forced disparate tribes into closer contact with each other.
