Leather necklace with handmade silver roll-bead with textured surface (N0097)

The necklace is made with round profile dark brown color faux-leather and a handmade silver roll-bead, crafted from a 1mm thick silver strip that we textured on surface with natural materials (wooden tree bark, straw, dry teak tree leaves, etc). The silver strip was thinned to roughly around 1 mm thickness by passing it into a rolling mill together with various materials that left the surface textured with beautiful, deeply embossed, natural patterns. The roll bead is approx. 18 mmx 10mm in size and has uneven (smooth to the touch) edges, so the final result has a very organic feel. The dark brown leather necklace contrasts nicely with the heavy, handmade roll-piece. It closes with a handmade silver hook. We also have a matching bracelet in our shop made with two smaller roll-pieces, that complements nicely this necklace. Our products are made of 95% silver, which is usually used by the Thai Karen silversmiths. Higher silver content contributes to a distinct look and feel of the product, unique to Karen hill tribe silver - it has a different feel, shine and bright satin color that contrasts beautifully with the dark leather necklace. The necklace comes with a handmade traditional Thai packaging and we always include a tracking number for all our packages. Length of the necklace: 45 cm Pendant is about 18 mm wide and about 10mm across diameterManufacturing location(s)/process(es)Lamphun, Thailand
