Hand crafted necklace made of Czech glass seed beads. Hand crafted in the Aboriginal dot style. The seed beads are 2mm and are a blend of copper, soft gold and Picasso turquoise green.

 

Length: 18"

 

Materials:

  • Czech glass seed beads
  • Gold plated fancy hook clasp

 

 

Necklace:

I designed this necklace to work well with natural earth colors. There is a pattern in the bead colors, very pretty.

 

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.
