This is an elegant spiral beaded bracelet. The piece is beaded using tiny Japanese square-hole silver-lined glass beads and secured using an 8-mm genuine Czechoslovakian druk glass bead (style shown uses cobalt glass). The round beads combined with interior faceting make for a stunning, yet understated piece. The intricate spiral requires 44 beads per inch, requiring several hours to complete. The jewelry consists only of the premium glass beads and the nylon cord...no metal or glue was used. The bracelet is suitable for persons having metal sensitivity, as the silver lining is inside each bead. It comes in a golden foil gift box. This piece is also available in many colors: cobalt/gold, emerald/gold, ruby/gold, teal/gold, teal/turquoise, ice blue/silver, jade/silver, cobalt/silver (shown), emerald/silver, ruby/silver, teal/silver. When ordering, please specify length and color.
