Periwinkle and Silver Beaded Beads

Description

I just love this color. It's so lovely and cheerful. It's not really a blue, yet not really a purple either, but a little of both. This particular bracelet was created with periwinkle Japanese seed beads and metallic silver Delicas which were woven into a focal bead along with Toho Treasure silver-lined blue triangle beads. The other cylindrical beads were woven from the metallic silver Delicas and they were all strung together with more of the periwinkle seed beads and 4mm sterling silver swirled beads and finished with sterling silver findings.

The bracelet measures 7.5" (19cm) in length.

Did you know that well-made beadwoven pieces can be very durable as evidenced by highly-valued vintage beadwork available in the antiques market? Given the same care you take with your fine jewelry, bead woven pieces can last a lifetime!
