A beautiful hand-made beaded bracelet helper.
I used lampwork glass beads, jade, a carved scarab beetle and a green evil eye acrylic bead.
The bottom of the features a chandelier of real elytra beetle wings.
These wings come from Thailand where the insects are eaten as a source of protein, and the wings are discarded. These wings have been hand-drilled and sanitized. They are naturally durable, weather proof and iridescent with no added effect for color. They are however still susceptible to crushing so be please handle with care.
This clip measures at about 8 inches long from top to bottom.
Very cool, sort of earthy bracelet helper art. Would make a nice gift.
