Pomegranate Seed Lip Balm Holder

Description

This piece was created using three varieties of Japanese beads (over 900 of them). There are bright silver-lined red, matte silver-lined red and larger silver-lined deep red beads which remind me of pomegranate seeds. I've also incorporated three different beading techniques as well, including peyote stitch, right-angle weave and picot. The holder is 2.25" (approximately 5.75cm) in height and will hold any standard lip balm, including many of those created by our fellow Etsyian artisans!

The holder is attached to a bright metal clip-style keychain by two sterling silver jump rings so it can be clipped to any loop, ring or zipper pull in or on your purse or even your jeans belt loop!

(Lip balm pictured is not included.)

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!
