Book: Body Adornment

Blake's Body Adornment is a collector's oversize coffee table book printed in color on heavy paper, 146 pages with hundreds of rare photos -- color photos of ancient and traditional jewelry now mostly located in the Nomad Museum in Bend, Oregon. About half the book is filled with unique images and histories of world peoples: tribal piercings and tribal jewelry from Mesoamerica to Europe to Oceania to China and Nepal.

Body Adornment is a treasure trove of rare information and seldom seen photos including some of the earliest body modifiers in Western Culture: Ethel Granger with the 13" waist and the Great Omi. There is also a long section on Fakir's fifty-year study and practice body modification plus a history of the birth of contemporary body piercing.
