'Beautiful Life'
Beadwork and kumihimo choker style necklace
16" long
pendant 2.25" long

* * * * * * *

'Beautiful Life' is a handmade 20 strand kumihimo choker, using Panda Silk DK bamboo/merino/silk blend yarn in the Jade Tones colorway, resulting in a very smooth and silky soft braid.

The kumihimo has been doubled, featureing a handmade cab by Lisa Peters Art in white stoneware, imprinted with flowers, leaves & the word 'Life' in blues, greys and greens as the pendant.

The cab has been handbeaded in peyote stitch, using metallic & transparent Miyuki Delicas in blues, greens & purples, with a loop around the doubled strands of kumihimo, creating a clasp for the handmade Lisa Peters Art raku button that is used as the toggle. The back has been carefully covered with genuine suede in a mossy green, with the edges the edges carefully beaded over for durability.

This piece is meant to be asymetrical, as very little in life itself is symetrical, closeing in the front, so both pieces are showcased.
