Hand Made Kashmiri/Indonesian Dark Blue Bead – (18mmx15mm)

Description

Dark Blue Kashmiri Beads

Dark blue kashmiri beads showcase the traditional metalwork techniques passed down through generations of Indonesian artisans. This individual specimen displays a rich navy foundation adorned with carefully applied silver metal decorations that wrap around its entire circumference. The deep colour saturation creates striking contrast against the bright metallic accents, making each handcrafted piece distinctly eye-catching in finished jewellery designs.

• Dimensions: 18mm length by 15mm width oval profile
• Generous 2.8mm hole accommodates multiple cord passes
• Silver decorated kashmiri beads feature antique-style metalwork
• Hand-applied metal decorations cover the entire bead surface
• 18mm handmade beads offer substantial presence in necklace designs
• Individual artisan craftsmanship ensures unique character variations

The substantial dimensions make this bead a natural centrepiece for statement necklaces where its ornate surface detail commands attention. Pair with smaller complementary beads in warm metallics or use as a dramatic pendant suspended from leather cord. The generous hole diameter easily threads onto thick macramé cord for bohemian-style jewellery projects requiring bold focal elements.

The deep blue foundation shifts subtly from navy to midnight depending on ambient lighting conditions, while the raised silver decorations catch and reflect light creating dynamic visual interest from every angle.
