This 'Karen Khaki Chic' wrap bracelet by Independent Artisans is a chic and versatile piece that blends ethnic influences with modern bohemian flair. Thai artisan Napapat has designed this bracelet by hand-knotting three strands of brown, gray, and olive waxed polyester cords, creating a layered effect that wraps elegantly around the wrist. The cords are adorned with florid beads of sterling silver-plated brass, which are meticulously crafted by artisans from the Karen hill tribe. The contrast between the simple cords and the feminine, floral beads makes this a unique accessory perfect for adding a touch of rustic charm to any outfit.
Raised in Chiang Rai, Thailand, the designer grew up crafting toys and accessories from flowers, leaves, and vines, guided by her natural creativity and resourcefulness. Inspired by her father’s carpentry and her mother’s support, she developed an early appreciation for craftsmanship. A formative moment came during a college field trip to the Yao hill tribe village in Chiang Mai, where she learned the intricate braiding traditions of the women artisans. Determined to adapt the technique, she experimented with materials until she discovered the durability and vibrancy of waxed cords, which became central to her jewelry. After graduating, she began designing bracelets, necklaces, and belts, blending ethnic Thai influences with modern durability. Now based in Chiang Mai, she collaborates with local artisans, drawing inspiration from Thailand’s diverse cultural heritage. Each of her creations reflects patience, imagination, and heartfelt artistry, offering wearers a lasting connection to Thai tradition.
This wrap bracelet is crafted from waxed polyester cords and sterling silver-plated brass beads and clasp. It weighs 0.42 oz and measures 22 inches L by 8 mm W. It features a button clasp and a matte finish. Made in Thailand.
