Artisan made with love

Five strands drape in a layered curve across the neckline, the shortest along the collar and the deepest at the base. Rust, terracotta, coral and cream shift bead to bead in a warm sunset palette.

  • Material: Recycled textiles
  • Color: Rust, terracotta, coral, cream
  • Length: 18 in shortest strand
  • Origin: India
  • Metal: Brass and copper
  • Extender: 3 in

Small brass spacers punctuate each strand, catching light between the matte textile beads. The lengths graduate so the layers hold their shape rather than collapse into one — volume across the collarbone without the weight of a solid piece.
Details
  • Five-strand layered design
  • Hand-wrapped textile beads
  • Mixed bead sizes
  • Brass spacers
  • Extender chain for adjustable length

Each bead is wrapped by hand from recycled cloth, so color, texture and finish shift from one piece to the next.

The Story

The beads are cores wound with strips of recycled textile — softened cotton and silk salvaged from worn saris rather than cut from new cloth. What was pattern on someone else's fabric becomes the surface of a bead.

Because the source cloth arrives in varied dye lots, the palette shifts across the strands: rust deepening to wine, terracotta softening to cream, a printed fragment surfacing next to a solid. The irregularity is built into the material itself.

Each bead is wrapped by hand, one at a time, then strung in sequence with small brass spacers. The five strands join at a shared clasp so they hang at graduated lengths.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Recycled textile-wrapped beadwork

Store dry, away from moisture, perfume and harsh chemicals to protect the fabric wrap and the metal spacers.

Questions

What are the beads made of?

Each bead is a core hand-wrapped in recycled textiles, which gives the necklace its soft, tactile surface and shifting color.

How long is the necklace?

The shortest of the five strands measures 18 in, with a 3 in extender chain for adjusting the fit.

Will the color and pattern match the photo exactly?

Not precisely. Because the fabric is recycled and each bead is wrapped by hand, small differences in color, texture and finish are normal.

How should I store and care for it?

Keep it in a dry place and avoid moisture, perfume and harsh chemicals to protect the fabric and the metal spacers.

Where is it made?

Handcrafted in India, using recycled textiles wound around individual bead cores.
