Here we have a collection of four graduated necklace strands of pale orange-red sponge coral beads from Java.
Each necklace strand measures 60cms and contains approximately 15 beads ranging between 12-18mm in size. They are interspersed with clusters of red Size 5 glass seed beads.
The collection would make a worthy mix for the adventurous beader.
Together with other beads from your own bead collection, these one-of-a-kind beads would work well as ingredients for statement jewellery – such as necklace or bracelets.
The selection is suited for boho, tribal or ethnic styles if you’re adventurous – a pair of dissimilar dangle earrings – could also become the talk of the night.
Colours that work well with them include the greens of turquoise and amazonite, the gold and browns of topaz and amber, the jet black of Algerian onyx and certainly the silver colour of tempered white metal or sterling silver.
The accompanying photos illustrate what to expect in your order; images may have been enlarged to show detail, while colours may vary slightly due to lighting variants.
