Hill Tribe Silver: I love to learn about and support cultures around the world. I am delighted to be using these beautiful Karen Hill Tribe Silver pieces in my own creations. Karen is the largest Hill Tribe group of people in Thailand. They are people who live at peace with nature and the forest in the more remote mountainous areas. Their beautiful creations are between 99.5% and 99.9% pure silver, and their silver product has a higher silver content than Sterling silver. Every piece is handmade and unique and purchasing this necklace helps support a traditional craft and supports this lovely group of people by providing them a reliable source of income. The hand-hammered and chased details are wonderful and you can actually see evidence of each piece having been formed by the hands.
