Model03 Kashmiri Beads
Model03 kashmiri beads showcase the meticulous artistry of traditional Kashmir craftsmen through their striking contrast of colours and textures. Each bead begins with a carefully shaped clay foundation, then receives hand-placed turquoise and coral-red seed beads that create distinctive patterns across the surface. The silver metal wire accents follow ancient techniques passed down through generations of artisans. These beads demonstrate why Kashmir’s beadmaking tradition remains unmatched in both complexity and beauty.
- Dimensions: 11mm width x 12mm length with generous 4mm threading holes
- Features vibrant turquoise red studded beads embedded in glossy black base material
- Traditional silver wire detailing applied using time-honoured techniques
- Individual craftsmanship ensures each bead carries unique character variations
- Clay core construction provides durability while maintaining lightweight properties
- Authentic 11mm black kashmiri beads from established artisan workshops
Wire workers appreciate how the substantial 4mm holes accommodate multiple passes of beading wire for complex structural designs, while the distinctive colour combination anchors earth-toned palettes beautifully. Macramé artists thread these silver wired artisan beads onto hemp cord for statement necklaces where the dimensional surface texture adds tactile interest. The balanced proportions work exceptionally well in asymmetrical earring designs where one bead provides sufficient visual weight.
The black base displays a subtle lustre that photographs consistently under both natural and artificial lighting, while the embedded turquoise and red elements maintain their vibrancy without fading. This reliable colour stability makes them dependable choices for commissioned work where colour matching remains critical over time.
