Artisan made with love

A single strand of small round beads thickens across the front into a dense cluster, where matte fabric-wrapped rounds sit against polished stones and pinpoints of gold-tone catch the light.

  • Material: Upcycled cotton and printed textile over reclaimed wood, gemstone beads, gold-tone sequins, alloy
  • Stones: Amethyst, tiger's eye, carnelian
  • Color: Multicolor
  • Length: 23 in with 3 in extender
  • Origin: India

The palette runs turquoise into magenta, orange, mustard and cobalt with no repeat sequence, so every angle rearranges the composition. It sits at collar length, dimensional enough at the front to carry a plain neckline on its own.
Details
  • Clustered bib-front focal point
  • Hand-wrapped fabric beads in mixed colors and patterns
  • Gold-tone sequin detailing
  • Adjustable length
  • One-of-a-kind gemstone mix

Every bead is wrapped by hand from a different textile scrap, and the gemstones are naturally variable — so no two necklaces share the same color placement or stone mix.

The Story

The beads at the cluster are wood cores individually wrapped by hand in scraps of cotton and printed textile, then strung so densely that fabric — not metal, not stone — becomes the necklace's dominant texture. The wood cores are furniture off-cuts; the textile is upcycled rather than cut new, so the palette is a record of whatever scrap colors ran through the workshop that batch.

The gemstones — amethyst, tiger's eye and carnelian — are scattered through the cluster rather than set in a pattern, glossy against the matte fabric. Small gold-tone sequins pin the surface and flicker between the beads.

The technique draws on the South Asian instinct for reworking leftover cloth — the same one behind kantha stitching — turning small mismatched scraps into something considered rather than discarded. Made by women artisans in India under a fair trade production setup.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-wrapped fabric bead work over reclaimed wood cores

Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Store flat or hanging, away from moisture and direct sun, to protect the fabric wrap and stone finish.

Questions

How long is the necklace?

23 in, with a 3 in extender so it can be worn slightly looser or snugger.

What are the beads made of?

The colorful beads are reclaimed wood cores wrapped by hand in upcycled fabric scraps. The polished ones are amethyst, tiger's eye and carnelian, with small gold-tone metal sequins as accents.

Will my necklace look exactly like the one photographed?

Not exactly. Each bead is wrapped by hand from a different scrap and the stones vary naturally, so color placement and stone mix will shift from one piece to the next.

How do I care for it?

Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth and store flat or hanging, away from moisture and direct sun, to keep the fabric wrap and stone finish looking their best.

Is it fair trade?

Yes — handmade by women artisans in India as part of a fair trade production process.
