Tribal Beadwork from the Philippines
I love it. Shouts to Jenna for representing the Philippines for me.
This is Yakan tribal beadwork from the southern Philippines. They are part of a large tribal ethnic group out of Mindanao. The patterns represent different animals and symbols recreated in painting and cloth.
They have a similar beading style to tribes in Afghanistan, as well as others I'm sure.
Jenna's wearing a piece I was able to get my hands on from an acquaintance in the Philippines, it is not a recreation.
