Product Description

The first book is especially about the role of aluminium in African jewellery and utensils. A collector's item for anyone interested in tribal jewellery and in particular the use of aluminium.

Over the last 15 years Rudolf de Ruijter & Anneke van Santen travelled frequently through many African countries visiting authentic living tribes in remote areas.

They collected many pieces of jewellery, tools and articles of everyday use made aluminium. Photographer Riana Jongema accompanied the couple several times and took pictures of them on site.

The collection now totals over 160 items from 67 tribes in 21 countries.

Aluminium Adorned shows the major part of the collection. Besides this the book explains the meaning and usage they have in the various countries. Finally, the last chapter describes the 125 years history of Aluminium & Recycling.
