Necklace Indian Atepa

The Atepa Indian necklace is a wide choker with four rows of elongated wooden beads, alternating with light blue, red and silver-coloured beads. Brown strips divide the rows into sections, so the necklace sits high around the neck like a striped beaded band. Women and men use it to complete their Indian costume during carnival.

What does the Atepa Indian necklace look like?

• The necklace consists of four parallel rows of beads that together form a wide band.
• Long cream-coloured beads alternate with sections of light blue and red beads, each framed by silver-coloured beads.
• Between the sections are brown strips that separate the rows of beads.
• At both ends is a long brown lace so that you can tie the choker around your neck.
• The necklace is made of wood, PVC and feathers.
• It is intended for both women and men.

The beaded choker in an Indian style

A wide beaded choker with rows of elongated beads is part of the image of an Indian as it is known from western films and comic books. Because such a necklace sits high around the neck, it remains visible above a shirt with fringes or an open collar. The colour combination of cream, light blue and red matches the earth tones that belong with an Indian costume.

Styling tips for the carnival parade

Wear the necklace during carnival with a brown or beige Indian costume, so that the light blue and red beads stand out clearly. Tie the laces at the back of your neck and tuck the ends under your hair or collar, so that only the beaded band remains visible. If you are going to a western party, the choker will suit a shirt with fringes and a headband with a feather just as well.
