Original Message:   Old brass works well with ancients

Probably because it looks a little like gold, I've found that old African brass works well with ancients (see photo). High content Hill Tribe silver, the kind with a matte finish, also can work. Other beads with no gloss can be tried - I'm a fan of black and brown wood disks; also horn and bone. I think that using blue spacer beads of any kind will make the whole necklace look too uniform and possibly boring. Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
