Ancient and modern adornments in Tibet

As early as four thousand years ago, the Tibetans already had developed an initial aesthetic ideology, a case in point being the adornments unearthed from the Karub ruins in Qamdo. During that time, adornments were mainly made of pottery, stone and seashell and the types of adornments were also colorful and abundant, including plate adornments, necklaces, bracelets, jade, etc. The color was original and natural and the production method was simple and unsophisticated. In regard to stone adornments, colorful stones had already been selected and used besides common stones. In addition to some natural finished products, people had already exerted their imagination to carve the adornments into various shapes. Among those unearthed adornments there was a bone hairpin. On top of it there were carved three cuneiform shapes of different sizes. It has a very good adornment effect, and not only epitomizes the bone carving crafts of the early Tibetan ancestors but also indicates that they had the custom of wearing coiled hair. It is interesting to find some necklaces made of seashells among those unearthed objects. Each bead is so tiny that it is hard to imagine what tools they used to perforate the beads.
