Hand crafted necklace made of Czech Farfalle glass seed beads. Hand crafted into a woven knot. The seed beads are 2mm by 4mm and are known as a butterfly or peanut shape. This is a blend of black, gray, soft white and clear beads. 

 

Length: 22" – 24” adjustable

 

Materials:

• Czech Farfalle glass seed beads
  
• Sterling Silver S clasp
  

 

 

Necklace:

I designed this necklace to work well with any solid color clothing. There is not pattern in the necklace, the colors are a random blend.

 

Care and cleaning:

Hand wash necklace using household dish soap and water. Lay flat to dry overnight. I do not recommend chemical cleaning because it may discolor the beads. Use a soft cotton cloth to enhance the sparkle.

 

About Bead Crochet:

Seed bead crochet is labor intensive, dating back to the early 1820’s. Each tiny bead is touched 3 times to build the spiral rope.

First touch: All beads are strung onto the cord in a predetermined pattern.

Second touch: Crochet the first row of beads, adding one bead with each stitch and determines the diameter of the rope.

Third touch: The subsequent rows are crocheted into each stitch of the previous row adding one new bead while flipping the previous bead to the side.

 

 

Disclaimer:

This item is made in the USA, all the materials used are NOT made in the USA (If you know of a US source for seed beads and nylon thread please message me as I have not been able to find them). Although this jewelry did not originate on Kauai, my heart returns to the Garden Island with fond memories.
