Details

• Bead sizes are measured ranges; handmade glass and bone, natural stone and vintage pearls vary from bead to bead within them, and shades of orange vary from strand to strand
• Holes from 0.5mm to 2mm: the aventurine and rice pearls need fine thread or wire; the recycled glass and bone fit cord
• The 7mm recycled glass strands are an unusually small size for recycled glass

An orange palette that mixes materials and textures: recycled glass from Ghana, made from old bottles crushed to powder and fired in clay molds, carved bone from Kenya dyed to look like coral, orange aventurine stone, vintage Japanese rice pearls and thin African vinyl disks. Use them together in one layered piece or across a coordinated set of necklaces, bracelets and earrings.
