Darkly earthy, this adjustable "slider" unisex bracelet features chunky, antique glass trade beads, ceramic discs & lava stone rounds, all in shades of turquoise, black & gold. The Venetian made African trade beads are from the period of late 1800's to early 1900's and are predominantly black & gold, with touches of green & red, in color. They're framed with textural antiqued brass & dull greenish Greek Mykonos ceramic discs, brass twist rings & verdigris bumpy metal beads. In between them are rounds of matte black lava stone.
With large hole beads set on sturdy, black colored woven cotton cord, this bracelet style can be adjusted in length to various sized (female or male) wrists. The last photo shows it modeled on my 6.5" wrist. It can be sized up another 1.5" in length. Keep in mind, the bracelet must go over the hand.
Cotton cord is more forgiving of accidental wetting than leather, but be aware, repeated dowsing will cause the cord to degrade faster. Also, if you wear the bracelet into a chlorinated pool, the cord will completely bleach out & no longer have any color.
