Four strands of small round beads sit close along the neckline, each wrapped in a different scrap of printed fabric — mustard, olive, magenta, terracotta, cream — linked bead-to-bead by fine gold-tone wire.

Material: Cotton-wrapped hand-carved wood beads
Color: Multicolor
Length: 22 in
Closure: Lobster clasp
Origin: India
Metal: Gold-tone wire and clasp
Extender: 3 in

The strands sit close rather than graduating, so the whole piece reads as one dense band of color across the collarbone. No two beads repeat the same print, and the composition shifts as the strands move.

Each bead is individually wrapped by hand from a different scrap of recycled sari fabric, so the color mix and pattern placement on your necklace will differ from the piece shown.

The Story

The fabric on each bead comes from a recycled sari — offcuts and worn textiles cut into strips and wound tightly around a carved wood core until the surface is smooth. Every bead pulls from a different garment, so the necklace becomes a small archive of many prints layered into one piece.

The wood beads underneath are carved from furniture scrap, another form of reuse that runs through the necklace. Reclaimed wood, reclaimed cloth: nothing here begins with new material.

Because the fabric changes with every batch of saris, no two necklaces come out the same. The color mix on any given piece is the visible sum of many individual garments.

Craft & Care

Technique: Recycled sari textile bead-wrapping

Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store flat or hanging so the fabric-wrapped beads keep their shape. Keep away from water, perfume, and direct sun.

Questions

How long is the necklace and is it adjustable?

It measures approximately 22 in with a 3 in extender chain, so there are a few inches of flexibility in how it sits.

What are the beads made of?

Each bead is hand-carved wood, sourced from furniture wood scraps, wrapped in strips of repurposed cotton sari fabric.

How should I care for it?

Wipe gently with a dry cloth, avoid water and perfume, and store flat or hanging so the fabric-wrapped beads keep their shape.
