Thai jewelry making Omyoki

Thai Omyoki jewelry is made in the northwest of the country, near Chiang Mai. This hilly region, close to the Burmese border, is the land of the Karen tribes, renowned for their expertise in weaving and making silver jewelry. The Karen migrated long ago from Burma and brought a traditional know-how of their own.

Omyoki handcrafted jewelry

Indeed, most jewelry made in Thailand are made by machine. Only jewelry made by the Karen tribes in northern Thailand are handmade and according to ancient traditional methods.

Fon & Lek's workshop

Lek's workshop is located in northern Thailand, near the Burmese border. I first met Fon and Lek in Bangkok, because they go down there to shop. Believe it or not, the communication was very complicated at first, because the Thais are not that English speaking! By dint of gestures and time we have come to understand each other. I have been to northern Thailand a few times and the creativity, colors and ingenuity there is amazing.
