Kashmiri Bead – Model09 (13mm X 20mm)

Description

Oval Red Green Kashmiri Beads

Oval red green kashmiri beads showcase the meticulous artistry of Kashmir region craftspeople through intricate seed bead placement on traditional clay cores. Each Model09 bead displays a unique arrangement of crimson and emerald accents that catch light beautifully when worn or displayed. The careful positioning of these tiny decorative elements creates dimensional texture that distinguishes these from mass-produced alternatives. This time-honoured lac bead technique produces variations in pattern placement, making every piece genuinely one-of-a-kind.

• Dimensions: 13mm width x 20mm length in classic oval profile
• Threading hole: 4mm diameter accommodates most cord weights
• Surface decoration: Red and green seed beads adhered to clay base
• Handcrafted using traditional Sri Nagar techniques
• Individual weight approximately 2.5 grams each
• Natural clay core with lacquer finish

These model09 kashmiri beads work exceptionally well as statement pieces in chunky necklace designs where their substantial size creates visual impact without overwhelming delicate features. The 13mm oval kashmiri beads pair naturally with bronze metal spacers for bohemian-style layering pieces. Seed bead decorated kashmiri work particularly well in earthy palette compositions alongside wooden elements and natural gemstones. Their 4mm threading hole accommodates thicker beading wire or leather cord for rustic jewelry applications.

The red tones lean toward deep burgundy rather than bright scarlet, photographing richly under natural lighting while the green elements show as forest-toned rather than kelly bright. This muted colour combination works particularly well in autumn-inspired pieces or when creating jewelry with vintage appeal.
