The above bracelet, "Untitled #2" is the second in a cycle of Paper Bead bracelets. This particular bracelet is made of embroidered wrinkle paper, sterling silver, and glass beads. The paper for this bracelet was actually machine embriodered with rather loopy random designs. The beads made for some interesting contrasts in texture and some subtle colorplay between the various blues in the paper. There is no clasp on this particular piece. The connections on the bracelet gives just enough so you can slip it over on your wrist and then settles back in the original shape, a mechanism similar to what you see in those expandable metal watchbands.
