Traditional Jewelry by Folk Hut

Since the time began, the native cultures have been producing enthralling art and handicrafts, the world over. Craftsmen from the villages of sub Saharan Africa to the desert tribesmen of Baluchistan have been passing on their skills since ages. Jewelry is passed on through generations, considered to be symbol of history , art and our culture and thus play a very significant role in the lives of Pakistani Individuals, also because some of the jewelry elements are also worn under the recommendation of astrologers and spiritual leaders. These gems and stones are believed to affect ones future and destiny and believed to have strong influence on the life of a person. The traditional jewelry in this part of world is enduring and mostly hand-made. The designs still seem pure and illustrious to people today in industrial societies. Traditional ethnic jewelry is made to withstand daily usage and therefore it is fabricated from heavier metals. However, the traditional jewelry in Pakistan is a combination of both conventional and modern designs and techniques. Pakistan has come under variety of religious, social and political influences. And Pakistan jewelry is the true mirror of its past, reflecting the social and historical change. The present Pakistan jewelry is the combination of the jewelry of the villages which is reminiscent of the ornaments of the ancient, sophisticated urban civilization which flourished between the years 3000 and 1800 B.C. and is considered to be one of the most highly developed civilization of the ancient world, and of the Muslim designs introduced in the 16th century by the Mughal Emperors. However, Silver jewelry is fashionable now in cities as well. Every gold design is also copied in silver by the city shops. Pakistan is full of Gold and Silver jewelers. Now due to the increasing demand of Pakistan traditional jewelry, this industry is now a full-fledged large scale organized industry. And women are so fond of wearing jewelry that a simple gold or silver ring or stud for ear or nose is normal merchandise.

When we talk about traditional jewelry we must talk about the Folk Hut which is a celebration of all those aboriginal cultures that have contributed and enriched human civilization as we know it today!!!
