Bracelet with Baby Blue Antique Beads, Gold-Toned Red White Hearts, and Pink Masai

This bracelet is crafted by linking together baby blue antique beads, gold-toned red white hearts, and pink Masai beads. The small baby blue beads in the four-strand section are antique beads from Venice, dating back to the 19th-20th centuries. Their matte texture and gentle hue are truly captivating! (Baby blue bead size: 2mm diameter) The deep red beads are White Hearts, named for their white cores. We've used gold-toned red White Hearts, where the red color is achieved through a gold-firing process, making them a popular and rare antique bead. Each bead possesses a unique color variation. A single, deeper red White Heart bead has also been incorporated. The pink beads are known as Pink Masai, named as such because the Masai people favored them. These also date from the 19th-20th centuries. The shape and color of each bead differ, offering a distinct charm even within the same Pink Masai designation! (Pink Masai bead size: 0.4-0.45cm) The small, pale blue beads interspersed throughout are old Venetian beads that made their way to the Naga tribes of India. A single bead has been added to the loop of the clasp as well. The golden beads are old Oriya brass, rare and aged beads sourced from the state of Orissa in India. The small beads on the clasp are Karen silver, each individually stamped! The thought of them being hand-engraved one by one is quite remarkable. ◇ Karen Silver ◇ This silver is crafted by a hill tribe living in the Thai-Burma region. Each piece is handmade, and the silver is said to be of very high purity. The clasp features turquoise, chosen for its beautiful web-like patterns and matte finish. (Turquoise size: 1.2cm diameter) Connected with waxed cord, the bracelet will initially feel somewhat firm but will soften beautifully with wear. This bracelet is a gentle and evocative piece, strung together with cherished antique Venetian beads.
