Leaf Fairy Blue Leather Turquoise Picasso Druk Magatama BOHO Bracelet

Rich colors of copper, green turquoise, deep Pacific blue and rainbow topaz make for a striking BOHO leather wrap bracelet. I have called this piece "Iridessa's Enchantment" due to the shimmering finishes of the beads. To start I selected a deep Pacific blue leather to which I hand wove gorgeous Czech green turquoise Picasso bronze glass druk beads. The Czech's have been producing their unique glass beads for hundreds of years and their signature Picasso finishes are ever popular. Weaving around and through the Czech druks I selected Miyuki chocolate glass seed beads. To create the beautiful ruffling I hand wove Miyuki long magatama glass beads in a marvelous dark topaz rainbow gold luster finish. These unique glass beads have an angled spear shape and the iridescent finish reflects in shades of yellow, gold and magenta. For the closure I selected a Bali flower antique copper button which was produced in the United States by TierraCast. The button will fit into the hole closure which has been created by deftly knotting the leather. For the final touch, and the reason for the name of this bracelet, I added a leaf fairy charm in antique copper. The fairy charm was also produced by TierraCast. Check out the closeup photos to see the wonder details in the Iridessa fairy charm. You can see the outlines of her delicate feet all the way up to her face, hair and wings.

This leather wrap bracelet is 8 inches or approximately 20 cm in length which was made to fit a 7 to 7.5 inch wrist. This bracelet cannot be re-sized so please measure to ensure the right fit. When measuring for bracelets, measure tightly where your wrist is broadest. Measure your wrist with a flexible, soft tape measure just below the wrist bone (below the wrist bone is the area between your hand and the wrist bone). This is your actual wrist size, not your bracelet size. Add approx. ¼ inches up to 1 inch (½ inch is average) to your actual wrist size, this is your approximate bracelet size. The more you add to your wrist size the more your bracelet will hang lower to your hand. The bracelet will come with an organza pouch for storage or gift giving.

Care: Do not get this bracelet wet as it may cause the leather to stiffen and shorten the life of the bracelet.

"The enchanted forest beckoned me into its pulsing heart. How could I resist such a lush Garden of Eden? The deep, haunting ballad of its ancient song called out to me. As old as Adam, the forest was still steeped in plushness and opulence. Then a finger of supernal light poked through the misty mesh. It was followed by a whole loom of light, filtering down in seams of gold. Like the luminal glow of the gods, it chased the shadows, banished the gloom and spilled into spaces where the mist once stalked."

As I edit my photos I ensure they are as exact as they can be to my jewelry pieces. Natural and artificial lighting can enhance or diffuse shades of stones and crystals as you wear them. I also use different backgrounds in my photos so that you can see some of the color variance. Enjoy!
