They are perfectly unisex, suitable for both men and women who appreciate handcrafted, heritage jewelry.
The Karen hill tribe are the largest ethnic
minority group in Thailand. They originated from Tibet, moving south to Myanmar and northern Thailand. Today, the Karen hill tribe live in areas alongside the Thai-Myanmar border such as; Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai and some in central Thailand.
Being between 99.5% and 99.9% pure silver, Karen silver has a higher silver content than Sterling silver. It's just the solder used to fuse the silver components together that makes up the last fractions of a percent. Consequently, it has a weight, bright satin colour, and feel, all of its own. Every piece is handmade and individual.
These pieces are not usually hallmarked in any way.
