Handmade Loom Bracelets and Cuffs by Hijab Sparkle

Click to enlarge image
These bracelets (or cuffs for the wider ones) are hand woven row by row on a wooden loom and contain around 1200 tiny seed beads depending on the size. Each bead is individually added to the needle until there is a complete row, and then this is added on to the design.  I mainly use quality 'Preciosa' glass seed beads which are made in the Czech Republic. Shapes are sometimes accented with gold or silver plated beads which sparkle in the light. The thread used is very strong, especially made for beading looms. The beads drape beautifully over the wrist and are cool and comfortable to wear.  The length of each bracelet can be custom made to fit your wrist.  Each piece is usually finished with a silver plated safety chain, parrot clasp, and a variety of glass bead dangles. Each bracelet is individually priced depending on the quantity of beads used and the difficulty of the technique and pattern.
