BNK-N35

Fine strands of small wood-disc beads layer at the collar in soft pink, lilac and peach. Many cords stack close together, building a full, graduated band that reads as one continuous field of color.

  • Material: Wood
  • Color: Pink, lilac, peach
  • Length: 27 in
  • Closure: Wooden hook
  • Origin: India

Worn, the strands separate slightly across the collarbone and settle into a substantial band without the weight of a solid piece. Color shifts bead to bead — the graduation only shows when light catches an individual strand.
Details
  • Multiple layered strands
  • Hand-dyed wood beads in a soft tonal palette
  • Wooden hook clasp that blends into the design
  • Lightweight for all-day wear

Each strand is beaded and dyed by hand, so slight shifts in shade, bead size and grain occur from piece to piece.

The Story

Wood beadwork is a small-craft trade across workshops in India. Blocks of wood are turned on a lathe into rounded rondelles, sanded smooth, then dipped in dye baths mixed to shade and sorted by color before stringing.

The multi-strand format uses repetition to do the work of a heavier piece. Many thin strands of the same bead in closely related tones read as one continuous surface rather than a patchwork of separate cords.

The closure is a wooden hook shaped to match the beads, so the hardware disappears into the design rather than sitting apart from it.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-turned and dyed wood beadwork

Wood dye lifts with moisture. Keep the necklace away from water, perfume and lotion, and store it flat or gently coiled to protect the finish.

Questions

How long is the necklace?

About 27 inches, designed to sit along the collarbone rather than close to the throat.

What is it made from?

Wood beads throughout, hand-dyed in pink, lilac and peach tones and strung in multiple layered strands.

How does it close?

A wooden hook clasp shaped to match the beads, so the closure blends into the design rather than standing out as hardware.

Will the color fade?

The wood is dyed before stringing. Like any dyed natural material, keep it away from water, perfume and lotion to preserve the color.

Is it heavy to wear?

Wood beads are naturally light, so despite the layered strands the necklace wears comfortably for long stretches.
