Jewel of the day: Mali Wedding Bead Necklace

I never used to gravitate to bead pieces, but I can see the beauty in the glass and assembly. This necklace, offered by Petalura, is described this way: “Fashion writers often talk about adding a pop of color to an outfit. If you’re more inclined to add the whole snap, crackle, and ka-pow, may we suggest this substantial statement necklace in a profusion of candy colors? Handcrafted in the U.S. using new and vintage Czech glass beads, inspired by Bohemian trade beads that are a traditional wedding gift among the Fulani tribespeople of Mali.

Still not bold enough? Add the matching bracelet for even more impact.”

This sells for USD$128.
