The construction

Built with intention

Three qualities define every bracelet in the shop.

Precision glass beads

Uniform Japanese glass Tila beads, chosen for consistent shape and clean color.

Dual-strand threading

Beads are threaded to hold their pattern and keep each row in its place.

Smooth, flat fit

A low, flat profile that sits comfortably against the wrist for everyday wear.

The studio method

Patient, bead by bead

Each bracelet begins with a considered sequence of colors. Two-hole beads are assembled one at a time, so the pattern develops slowly and deliberately across the length of the piece.
