Brass Strand of Beads

Stacked discs, rolled like coins and then dumped on the table in a good mood.

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. Thin disc beads press together into ribbed tubes of dull gold, some darker and smudged with age. A tuft of grey cord pokes out near the centre. One small open ring bead sits at the left edge.

Quiet metal that adds up fast once it is all together.
