short description
The Adi of Arunachal Pradesh are splendid jewelers; bead earrings are commonplace decorational affixations. One exceptionally beautiful piece is the great semi-circular earring whereby turquoise-colored blue glass beads are put together with a thick bow-like attitude by means of an attached elastic string. This construction is unique in its neatness and usefulness, for it is the string from which this ornament may be laced onto the ear in security. Amidst the turquoise-colored beads is the busy kaleidoscope of colors reflecting the Adis' vivid love and varied patterns that are treasured in earrings. At the knot ends of the wedge instead of glue, the thread is knotted for durability and strength, reflecting how intricate these ways are for the tribe; this practical practice is to retain sustainability in the use of natural resources and traditional methods in making these earrings.
These beaded earrings are not only ornamental but culturally functional in the day-to-day activities of the Adi. They are regarded as incisive references to their attainment, identity, and expressions, and wear them while working in their fields during the rice planting season. Intergenerational transfer of information concerning jewelry-making is one major factor affecting artistic practice. Celebrities are increasingly being involved in indigenous arts and Adi beadworks which are gradually gaining form and adhering to the beauty and sustenance of tribal jewelry.
