A serpent that asks only to coil around your wrist. Stripes of glass beads ripple down its body to a gleaming metal snake's head, in colorways from red-black-white to green and gold.

Bead-crochet, made by hand in Ukraine — beads circling round and round on cotton thread until the cord moves like the creature it portrays.

Length 7 in.

No two identical. Arrives gift-ready.
