The beads are strung on silky copper chain which allows them to move and fit your wrist comfortably. <br /><br />Due to the age of these beads, they are not perfect, and that is part of the charm of wearing something truly old. The bracelet was designed to put the focus on the lovely patterns and shapes of these rarer beads, especially the unusual trade bead. <br /><br />Also, while this bracelet is a comfortable weight, ceramic beads can be heavy. With that in mind, I would say this is not a good bracelet for those with arthritis, or who prefer lighter weight pieces. <br /><br />The bracelet measures 7.5 inches, and can be lengthened or shortened if needed.

All my designs are from my own drawings and do not use stencils or appliques for the felting. <br /><br />Flame red flowers with creamy wool centers and black stems and leaves decorate the black, cream and charcoal argyle front of the pillow, which measures 10 x 14. The back is upcycled high quality black wool that has been felted to a soft texture. <br /><br />I make my own pillow inserts of muslin and stuffing to create a smooth surface for the felted cover. <br /><br />I offer free First Class shipping to the US and Canada. <br /><br />I am always happy to ship internationally.
