Brass Strand of Beads

Concentric golden discs with spiky rims, dressed up with deep blue beads.

This is a strand of beads. It is brass & blue glass. Brass beads in a strand are often graded or mixed by size, so the rhythm of the strand is as much a part of the piece as the beads. Large round discs carry tight spiral rings and a rim of tiny raised dots, each pierced along a ribbed bar. Small round blue beads in a saturated cobalt tone run between them. The metal is dull gold with greenish tarnish.

Bullseye patterns and blue beads, quite pleased about both.
