Bracelet, Floral Brocade

Description

This bracelet features flowers of matte black edged in metallic dark nickel silver on an opaque black background. Each flower has a matte dark nickel silver centre, to balance with the matte black petals. I love how luxurious this looks, how the combination of matte and opaque black creates the look of velvet brocade. The dark nickel silver adds a richness that makes this a very desirable bracelet.

I was playing with creating interesting shapes when I came up with the flower-like shape used in this design. From there, it was a simple exercise to turn that shape into a repeating pattern. This design excites me. Every time I look at it, I come up with different colour combinations in my head. That, to me, is the mark of a great design; when the potential of it is limitless.

These bracelets get noticed. Each bead in this piece is sewn in individually for a finished product that behaves like a piece of fabric and is just as comfortable to wear.
