Opulent Simplicity.
Created in the 1990s.
Made with:
Contemporary Japanese glass beads coated with karat gold and stitched in a beading technique known as “Ndebele herringbone.” This technique was invented by the Ndebele women of South Africa. It produces a very distinctive pattern in the beads remiscent of a herringbone twill.
Contemporary Japanese glass beads in bronze and rose copper.
Antique Venetian glass beads in tiny black.
Antique European glass beads with flat backs and faceted domes, in black.
Contemporary Czech glass beads in black and amber.
Bright sterling silver beads.
A hand-formed sterling bail (hanging loop) that accommodates a neck wire or chain up to slightly less than 1/4” wide.
Weight:
Lightweight.
Dimensions:
4” tall including bail by 1” diameter.
Additional Information:
If you order this beautiful piece, please know that it will not ship for 10 days because I need time to refresh the amber beads near the top. They have become dull in the last 30 years and I want to add new ones. If you’re willing to wait, you will receive a piece that is as close to just-made as possible.
