There were no precious stones, gold or jewels in the modern sense.

"Jewellery" for men consisted of grizzly bear claws attached to otter fur necklaces, chokers of dentalia shells traded from the west coast, shell gorgets, strings of beads, elk teeth, cowrie shells and long heavy earrings. Silver disks obtained from traders were attached to a long leather strip hanging from the back of the hair, or made into belts.

Women were fond of elaborate hair pipe necklaces hanging down to the waist and also used shells for earrings. Women also liked the traded silver disks attached to leather belts.

So the main items of jewellery were shells, bone, horn, beads and traded silver disks.

The Comanche made much more use of face and body paint than tattoos, but it is known that some Comanche women tattooed their faces and (less often) their breasts; men tattooed the chest to emphasise battle scars. These tattoos would normally be obscured beneath shirts or necklaces so would be difficult to see.
