Made by the head-hunter tribe Asmat, from Papua province of Indonesia. Native necklace comprises 120 natural pieces: 64 pig teeth and 56 chank shells embroidered with woven fibre twine. These ethnic objects were not only worn for personal adornment but as a symbol of power and strength in their rituals of vengance. The Asmat call these necklaces: omer pok eco pok, which means: things to frighten people with, things that make you great.
