Story behind this piece: Warm colors blend together incredibly well. Rich and syrupy, sultry and sensuous. I used some rare glass stones in this luscious piece. You will find some Madeira navettes and ovals. Madeira is similar to a dark ochre or burnt sienna color. The navettes were made in the former Czechoslovakia in the 1950's. There are also some vintage Swarovski diamond-shaped stones called Siam Ruby. These were made in Austria in the 1960's. Excellent!
Bangle Bracelet Sizing: Bangles are sized differently from other bracelets. Their size is fixed and you must slip the bangle over your knuckles and hand.
Step 1. Make a fist, knuckles up.
Step 2. Measure from the center of your first knuckle (index finger) to the center of your 4th knuckle (pinky finger). This measurement will be the Opening Diameter that is appropriate for you. See above.
Step 3. In general, Small: 2 1/4" to 2 3/8", Medium: 2 1/2" to 2 5/8", and Large: 2 3/4"+.
Note about Rhinestones: All my jeweled items are made with glass rhinestones with pointed backs. They are meticulously embedded into the mosaic substrate by hand, one by one. Never glued. The seal becomes fixed, durable, and waterproof. The process is very time consuming and is all done by hand. Much of the time I must use a magnifying glass, since the stones are so small. The result is that you will have an art piece that will look as beautiful as it does now for many years to come.
Rhinestones & Photography: The rhinestones I use are sparkling and beautiful! Getting that sparkle to show up in a picture, however, can be quite a challenge. There are no “white spots” or “black spots” on the stones. These are photographic artifacts caused by the camera and lighting. I do my best to minimize this. Monitor settings may also differ, so actual color may vary a bit. Video included in my listings will show how truly dazzling these items are. Any questions, please contact me before buying.
All profits from my sales on Etsy I donate to charities helping persecuted Christians around the world.
Each micro-mosaic item is an original, one-of-a-kind creation. I hope this dazzling jeweled bracelet will give you as much joy to have and wear, as I received from making it. May the Lord's light shine upon you.
