This bracelet is made using salmon agate chips and purple seed beads for spacers. It has a silver toggle clasp and is 7 1/2 inches in length.

I read an article in Bead Style magazine about making jewelry using bead chips and a right angle weave to create all types of styles and designs. I saw these salmon agate chips on sale soon afterward and decided to try them with a right angle weave design. Due to the irregular shape of the beads you could see the beading wire between some of the pieces. So I decided to use the tiny seed beads between the chips to fill in those spaces and cover the wire. The outcome worked. The bracelet has a lot of texture and form. It is a fun piece to wear.
