With a medley of colors, textures and patterns, this necklace is definitely not for the fashionably faint of heart; one needs to be 100% committed to pull off such an adventurous look. Shop owner Zunka was a dissatisfied flight attendant before she pursued a more creative career. The Baboshkaa [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etsy-partners-with-wnba) store was produced out of Zunka’s desire to share her multinational vision. She describes the process as a journey that continually helps her unearth new abilities and talents. The Tribal Ethnic Necklace, like all of her work, is 100% hand-made and absolutely gorgeous.
