The tribes of the Amazon rainforest are widely known for the beautiful forms of art they create. The patterns found on these bracelets represent the ‘kene’: visions of the dimensions perceived by indigenous makers during their work with sacred plants. These designs carry deep symbolism and meaning, rooted in knowledge that is passed down through generations.
Often, the bracelets are blessed by the tribal chief before leaving the community, where they are brought to local markets and small shops to be shared with the world. In this way, each piece carries the touch of its maker and also a spiritual connection to its origin.
