Product Description
This beautiful bracelet is handcrafted with rich purple and gold colored beads in assorted sizes. The warm colors are evocative of autumn leaves on a cool, crisp October morning. This seed bead bracelet is great for casual or dressy fall wear.

The bracelet was crafted spontaneously, with little advance planning. I "painted" it by intuitively weaving the seed beads and letting the colors flow; much like an abstract paining. Woven with a traditional off loom beading stitch, the change of bead sizes, shapes and colors gives the seed bead bracelet a unique blend of texture and color. A fun piece of art for your wrist and one of a kind addition to you autumn wardrobe.

Included are elegant accents of Swarovski pearls . Czech glass beads and copper beads add additional color and texture. And Swarovski crystals add wonderful sparkle.

The bracelet is finished off with a polymer clay button for the clasp. It was handcrafted by me specifically to blend with the bracelet colors. I highlighted the button with mica powder prior to curing. This added shimmer and add another note of color and texture.

The stitch I used for beading this bracelet is sometimes called the gourd stitch. It is one of many "off-loom" beading stitches. This particular stitch is common in traditional and contemporary Native American beading. (I am not Native American) I have used this traditional stitch in a fun and nontraditional manner.

Measures 7 3/4" (fits approximately 7 ¼" wrist) Width varies from about1 ¼"- 1 ½" wide.
