Skull loom beaded bracelet
Skull loom beaded bracelet
Six skulls in a row, each grinning in its own square of night. Loomed row by row in black glass beads, with the skulls picked out in white — the kind of pattern that reads as folk embroidery from across a room and as mischief up close.
The band closes with a stainless clasp on an extension chain, so it fits the wrist it lands on. Pairs with the Skull beaded earrings for the full October outfit.
No two identical. Arrives gift-ready.
Czech glass seed beads, loom-woven; stainless-steel clasp with extension chain. Recommendations: do not wet, protect from chemicals and perfume, store flat. All items are handcrafted, so measurements are approximate, colors can vary and each one is unique.

The tale of this motif
The tale of this motif
Folk motifs carry meanings older than writing — poppies guard the home, wheat calls the harvest, birds watch over travellers.

Field note № 7
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.
