Wear it close at the throat, or let it coil twice around your wrist — a supple serpent of beads ending in a gleaming metal snake's head, part talisman, part dare.

Bead-crochet, made in Ukraine: thousands of beads strung onto one continuous thread, then worked round into a cord that moves like the creature it borrows its name from. Beads, stainless-steel accents in silver or gold tone, cotton core.

Length 14–18 in, depending on the colorway.

No two identical. Arrives gift-ready.

Beads for the night side

Black glass has a long memory: Victorian mourning jewellery was strung from it, and a black-ground gerdan makes every red burn brighter. Our skulls, bats and serpents are beaded exactly like the poppies — the same seed beads, the same hands in Ukraine — only the motifs have changed.
