Nuts About You Too: Handmade Necklace 2/2

Description

Handmade polymer clay beads in a palette of warm nut browns with glints of copper metallic leaf, finished with an orchid silk cord.

Inspired By...

Almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, pea... we love them all.

Provenance

Made on the sofa of Seagreen & Blue founder, Eva, whilst listening to The Rest is Entertainment. She's definitely entertained!

Seagreen & Blue Beads

Eva hand mixes polymer clay colours in small batches before weighing, rolling, piercing & stringing each individual bead. It's a long, slow process. But the results are beautiful.

Batch: 2 of 2

Each made with a different configuration of beads so you can guarantee each one is as original as you are.

Fastening

Finished with cord made from recycled sari-silk reclaimed from sari production and made into ribbon lengths in rural India using handmade traditional techniques by women's co-op groups. The ribbons are hand dyed so may have areas that are over or under-dyed, including 'speckles', giving a gorgeous vintage feel.

Using cord allows for you to fasten at the perfect length for you and your outfit, and is long enough for a dramatic bow to be tied at the back or side. Feeling less dramatic? Trim to the length you prefer.
