Kuchi, a Persian word meaning "those who go on migrations," refers to a nomadic tribe that has historically lived along the ancient routes bordering Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Kuchi tribal jewelry reflects the freedom of a nomadic lifestyle, embodying influences from a diverse collection of cultures encountered along their travels.

 

These pieces were designed for daily wear, crafted boldly from sturdy metal to endure the demands of constant movement. The designs often incorporate intricate metalwork, colorful glass jewels, beadwork, coins, bells, dangles, mirrors, and vibrant fabrics.

 

Today, Kuchi jewelry is worn by a wider audience, appreciated for its bold designs and cultural significance. While it has found its way into modern fashion, it is important to celebrate and honor the historic origins of these pieces and the stories of the nomadic communities who created them.

I’m thrilled to share this collection with you, sourced directly during my travels in Pakistan.
