These vast multi-chromed ornamental earrings are a happy combination of skill and the Adis' poetic sense of color and design in adornment-making. The earrings consist of semi-circular turquoise-like blue glass beads that form the main structure of the ornament. The way these beads are arranged in pairs gives off an elegant bow shape, to which a string is attached, allowing adjustment at the time of wearing. This string becomes an essential design element along with its functionality. Apart from turquoise blue beads, the Adi tribe is famous for their multi-chromed earrings that brighten any color set with a hundred different shapes of beads. Adi women wear these earrings in their daily life, which carry serious cultural meanings to the tribe as a link between nature, beauty, and personal identity.
A knot in the thread at the wedge ends of the earrings provides strength and stability, ensuring that the ornament resists day-to-day wear and tear. This knotting therefore also highlights the design of the earrings, with a guarantee for being worn longer while reducing the consumption of glues.These multi-colored bead earrings symbolize beauty and the cultural heritage of the tribe. Adi women wear them regularly and much involved in social and ritual practices. The significance of ornaments such as earrings in the Adi tribe expresses not only individuality but much more the very values of tradition.
