Handcrafted in sterling silver, this piece is part of a series created by Australian Master artist-jeweller Dorothy Erickson paying homage to women needleworkers. This bracelet comprises 13mm x 1mm lengths of sterling silver connected by circular jumprings. Arranged into six, parrallel, 19.5cm lengths, four of these strands are each fitted with five tourmaline beads.
The interlocking barrel clasp is a work in itself.
The pairing of light-green tourmaline with the sterling silver is strongly reminiscent of crochet.
Length of bracelet: 43cm
