Two-Tone Seed Bead Woven Bracelet

This item is a meticulously handcrafted flat-panel beaded bracelet, likely made from glass seed beads. It features a distinctive two-color pattern: a dominant dark purple or magenta, and an accent color of light green or celadon. The construction appears to be a beadweaving technique, possibly a variation of peyote stitch or Ndebele (herringbone) stitch, creating an intricate openwork, diamond-like or honeycomb pattern. The purple beads form the structured frame of the design, creating an interlocking network of small rhomboids, while the light green beads are strategically placed at the intersections or centers of these shapes, providing visual contrast and definition. The bracelet exhibits a consistent bead size, indicating good craftsmanship, and the tension of the beading thread appears uniform, which is crucial for the durability and aesthetic of beadwork. There are no obvious signs of significant wear, damage, or missing beads, suggesting it is in good condition, or relatively new. No visible maker's marks or signatures are present, which is common for handmade beadwork. The style suggests a contemporary handcrafted piece, possibly from the late 20th or early 21st century. Its approximate dimensions can be inferred from its placement across two fingers, indicating it is a wide cuff-style bracelet, likely between 1.5 to 2 inches in width. The quality is indicative of a skilled artisan due to the intricate pattern execution and consistent finish.
