When I was designing this collection, I wanted to try to incorporate more of my artisan bead hoard into my work. I found these really cool artisan beads I’d been saving, and I decided to work with them. They have the most spectacular coloring for glass. I paired the three 9x12mm artisan beads with gorgeous rough garnet in varying sizes. To pick up some of the gray in the artisan beads, I used some 5mm smoky quartz heishi and some stunning 6.7mm faceted smokey quartz cubes. I used itty bitty 2mm faceted garnet as accents throughout the bracelet. It is finished in sterling silver with a lobster clasp and extender chain. It will adjust from 7 6/8”- 8.75”. Accounting for the size of the beads, I will say it should fit wrists 7.5”-8.5”. Dangling from the end of the extender chain are more little garnets.
