This elaborate work of wearable art celebrates tradition and innovation. Beaded rosettes are comprised of concentric circles of beads. Subtle variations of bead sizes, shapes and colors insure that no two rosettes are exactly alike. This rosette measures almost 3” in diameter. The “cut” 11/0 seed beads have flat surfaces ground into the glass, creating a sparkling effect.

The necklace is adjustable, utilizing a hand-cut braintanned deerskin lace. Note the unique scalloped bead edging. The raised peaks highlight the bold designs radiating from the center of the rosette. The multi-strand necklace features light blue glass fire-polish beads, glass “pony beads” and seed beads.
