Spectral Lights Bracelet


Crystals and pearls are woven together with double needles to create a richly textured and sparkling top for the bracelet. This top layer of crystals and pearls is supported by bead arches which connect to the back piece of the bracelet. With this connection, the top portion of the bracelet becomes slightly domed with lots of open space which allows light to pass thru to illuminate the crystals. The finished bracelet curves beautifully into a structured circle which is more reminiscent of a bangle than a bracelet. A hidden closure completes the seamless look of the bracelet.
