Chiang Mai 99% silver fish earrings from our travels in Thailand. The Karen tribe in the Chiang Mai delta are renowned for hand-forging and shaping silver jewelry from a single piece of this pure regional silver. In this instance Jay reshaped the malleable silver from flat to a flowing effect, illustrating how pure the silver is. The fish scales were stamped into the flat fish in the Karen tradition.16
