Brass Strand of Beads

Bark-textured little beads in a deep loop, with one bright yellow bead showing off.

This is a strand of beads. It is brass. Brass has long been a favored metal for beads, its warm gold color deepening to a soft brown with handling. Barrel beads with carved-looking, crusty faces in smoky brown-gold. Thin ring spacers divide them into a neat, ribbed line. One pale yellow bead sits low in the curve, next to a heavier, darker run.

Understated, textured, and sure of itself.
