Dainty crocheted heavy medium brown silk chain captures carved natural bone, pearls, and stones to create a meditative setting for a bone focal painted with the yoga (Hindu) symbol Om.

Glossy brown keishi pearl petals, round coppery pearls, assorted turquoise blue colored stone beads, small beads of earthy colored jasper, and tiny disks of shiny brown mother of pearl join bone carved as tiny grooved beads, in natural brown spirals and as a single rose embellished bead about 3/4" wide. The Om medallion dangles from a loop handmade from silk covered in copper colored glass seed beads and can be slid off when you just want to wear the chain as a cuff or necklace without the pendant.

The chain is a generous 70" long to wear in clustered or cascading loops as a necklace, to wind around the wrist for a rich cuff, or even use as a lariat or a belt--your imagination is the only limit. My original design closes with a silver spring clasp and jump ring.

The dark brown silk is heavy gauge beading silk, made in America, and easily hand washable. I recommend cool water with mild soap, then rinse and hang with a bit of weight to dry.
