What is a curl?

As a verb, to curl is to form or cause to form into a curved or spiral shape.

And as a noun, a curl is something in the shape of a spiral or coil, especially a lock of hair.

So what is our Curl? This Curl is a cubic right angle weave tube that has been shaped so that it coils. It coils around a Prismatic Right Angle Weave core tube and the curl section forms the focal for the bracelet. Although fixed to the core tube at both ends, the Curl is in fact a free standing and self-supporting moveable coil around the core.

And as a noun, a curl is something in the shape of a spiral or coil, especially a lock of hair.

So, what is our Curl? This Curl is a cubic right angle weave tube that has been shaped so that it coils around a prismatic right angle weave (PRAW) tube. This Curl not only serves as a decorative pendant to the lariat, but it is also a clasp of sorts. Winding the curl around the PRAW tube will bring the 2 ends of the lariat together fastening them together. A small magnetic clasp is both ornamental as well as functional, to prevent the Curl from unwinding. Suspended from the internal PRAW tube is a beaded bead finial of luscious pearls.

The Curl is not just jewellery but is also a kind of fidget toy. Curl and uncurl your curl. Twirl it around. Play with it.

A kaleidoscope is an optical instrument with two or more reflecting surfaces tilted to each other at an angle. Objects at one end of the mirrors are seen as a regular symmetrical patterns when viewed from the other end due to repeated reflection.

Our Kaleidoscope is not a working kaleidoscope but the reflections of the beautiful sparkling dome crystal from Swarovski reflects light symmetrically just like a kaleidoscope.

A dome crystal is placed at each end of the pendant connected to each other with a beautifully embellished beadwork tube. The tube further sparkles with twinkling little Czech fire polished beads further reflecting light to enhance the sparkle of the crystal.

The pendant is suspended from a simple unadorned herringbone rope to allow the beauty of the pendant take center stage.

Amoeba comes from the Greek word amoibe, means change. It’s a tiny, one-celled organism that moves by changing its shape.

Just like these one-celled organism, the Ripple beads shimmer and shine and appear to change its shape and color all on its own.

Woven on a simple base, the Ripple “amoeba” are embellished with glittering Swarovski lachrosen for that added shimmer. The clasps is hidden and making the cuff appear endless, with no beginning or end. 

One of my favourite design houses is the House of Chanel started by Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel, more well known as Coco Chanel. She is often credited with liberating women from the constraints of the "corseted silhouette" and popularizing a sporty, casual chic as the feminine standard of style. She is well known for the little black dress, tweed suits, distinctive costume jewellery and the 2.55 bag. Her use of beautiful tweed and always the pearls makes her fashion exudes style, sophistication, class and timelessness.

The Gabrielle Cuff is my homage to Coco Chanel who is very often my personal muse when it comes to beading. Her love of pearls is evident in a bold cuff that is studded with luscious pearls in a grid pattern. The grid is further embellished to resemble the look and texture of the tweed she so loves. Gabrielle may be worn 2 ways – one with a clasp and for those of you who would like to touch of whimsy - a ribbon can be used as closure.

Tide pools, or rock pools, are rocky pools on the sea shore which are filled with seawater. Many of these pools exist as separate pools only at low tide.

The herringbone bezelled crystal rivolis sparkle like pools of light - just like an ocean tide pool. Luckily for us though, our Tide Pools do not disappear when the tide comes in. They continue to reflect light and glimmer on our wrist.

Maria Theresa was an Austrian archduchess, the only female ruler of the Hapsburg dominions and also the last of the House of Hapsburg. Sovereign of Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Bohemia, Transylvania, Mantua, Milan, Lodomeria and Galicia, the Austrian Netherlands and Parma. By marriage, she was Duchess of Lorraine, Grand Duchess of Tuscany and Holy Roman Empress. She was also the mother of the infamous Marie Antoinette, wife of Louis XVI of France.

Maria Theresa promulgated financial and educational reforms, promoted commerce and the development of agriculture, and reorganised Austria's ramshackle military, all of which strengthened Austria's international standing. A ruler very much ahead of her time.

The Maria Theresa Collar is in honour of this modern woman who shattered glass ceilings way before the notion of glass ceilings. Shaped prismatic right angle weave embrace a glowing Swarovski crystal pearl to form sweet components. They are placed on a fun necklace of embellished swirling balls made from Czech crescent beads. Learn to make swirling balls that swirl in opposition directions for perfect symmetry. An elegant collar fit for a Holy Roman Empress.
