I have linked this work under Textiles as Jewellery in beadweaving not listed. I designed and hand beaded these pieces stitching/weaving together Bead by Bead a cuff and 2 sets of earrings. I use Japanese (Miyuki) delica (cylindrical) glass beads of the highest quality and Miyuki galvanized gold seed beads. For the earrings, I used Miyuki glass super duo beads, bezelled Chrystal rondelles and Swarovski bicones . I designed all the pieces based on Paisley Patterns which I have been interested in for many years.
