Description

(2018), 3" diameter, delica beads (matte dark metallic moss green ab, dark metallic moss green, metallic moss green, metallic light green ab, 14k gold), size 15 14k gold seed beads, pink gold-fumed magatama beads, fireline.

The architecture of this bracelet is similar to the much brighter "Taking the Summer Off". I started with a RAW band using the dark metallic and metallic moss green Delicas and then worked the middle part of the bracelet with its gold horns emerging from ever lighter shades of metallic green beads. I finished the center segment with another RAW band for symmetry and then added the winged rims on either side, again accentuating the increases with lighter metallics and eventually gold beads. The tips of the horns and wings are emphasized with gold-fumed magatama beads and I edged the bracelet on both sides with small size 15 14k gold seed beads for a finish that picks up on the gold accents.
