One more close-up. I had to brighten the shadows quite a bit to get the holes more 'legible'. It's neat to see the ends, where the small bits of black glass are laid down to form the braid pattern. The second picture shows why it took me so long to get these pics. I had to remove about 5 layers of beads and tools until I got to the very bottom of the pile. Of course, that strand of beads was at the very bottom. But right where I'd left them. I like to consider my workspace an archeological dig. Some detractors might say 'midden heap'. Whatever. It works for me, and seems to fascinate visitors. All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
