ILA-N03-BL

Dozens of fine blue strands cascade from two black-wrapped shoulder points, split down the center by a ladder of small black beads that pulls the fringe into a graphic V.

  • Material: Glass seed beads with black glass accents
  • Color: Blue with black accents
  • Length: 21 in
  • Drop: 15 in
  • Closure: Button and loop
  • Origin: Ghana

On the body the strands fall well below the collarbone and shift with every turn. The black spine holds the parallel lines in tension against the color, giving the piece its structure. Built for scale rather than subtlety.

Details
  • Multi-strand cascading fringe
  • Hand-strung seed beadwork
  • Contrasting black bead center spine
  • Button and loop closure
  • 15 in drop

Every strand is hand-strung, so slight variations in bead color and finished length are normal from one piece to the next.

The Story

The necklace is hand-strung in Ghana, where multi-strand fringe is a familiar structure in beaded jewelry — volume built from dozens of fine strands rather than from a few larger beads.

Each strand is threaded bead by bead, gathered at the two shoulder anchor points, then crossed with a ladder of black beads down the center to form the spine. That ladder does the structural work: it holds the strands in tension so the fringe hangs in clean parallel lines instead of collapsing into a tangle.

The color pairing is deliberate. Saturated blue for the volume, black for the contrast and the structure — a combination that reads as bold rather than delicate.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-strung glass seed beadwork

Keep away from water and direct sunlight. Store flat so the strands rest without tangling or stretching.

Questions

How long is it, and how far down does it fall?

21 in total length with a 15 in drop, so it sits well below the collarbone.

What is it made of?

Hand-strung blue glass seed beads with black glass bead accents forming the center spine, finished with a button and loop closure.

How should I care for it?

Keep it away from water and direct sunlight, and store it flat so the strands keep their shape and don't tangle.

Will mine look exactly like the photo?

Small differences in bead shade or finished length are normal, since each necklace is hand-strung rather than machine-made.
