And so the story...

Oh-la-la! So pretty is the overall look of this beauty. The soft bangle rope component of this design is made up of the finest Czech glass beads in turquoise, coral, cream, and smoky topaz all with varying finishes. The rope ends with my signature end caps in top-quality gold-plate pewter -- see the tiny hearts worked into the surface design?

The gobstopper gemstone bead (12mm) of Russian amazonite joins with smoky quartz gemstone, freshwater pearl, Swarovski crystal and the prettiest carved floral puffy oval bead in cream (1 ¼”). The style of this bracelet is quickly becoming a favorite among all of you. Since this design has a little give in it, they simply roll on and roll off – no need to ask your husband, boyfriend, roommate. doorman or that guy waiting in line at Starbucks for help.

Sized to fit an average wrist. (I also want you to know that there is a good chance the carved bead is of animal origin – not that the animal was hunted for its bone – the bones are a remnant of meat processing. So if you choose not to wear any animal product, then this is not the bracelet for you. But there are plenty others that will suit your fancy including one just like this without the carded floral piece #0455.) Here you can see how I’ve layered it with a cool hip downtown corded bracelet. Fun, no?
