A sleek orange and gray handblown glass bead is the feature of this 20" necklace with hand painted wood beads and silk ribbon. The central bead is like a koi fish, with a curving body and bright silk tail. It is flanked by prismatic wood beads and wood spacers on a leather cord fastened with a copper S-hook clasp. The bead is handcrafted by lampwork glass artisans at Unicorne Beads and makes for a terrific and unusual accent.

Cost: $84.00 USD
