Pendant with Kumihimo cord
Mella Bella DesignsI made the custom cord for this necklace using the Kumihimo technique, which is a Japanese form of braid-making by interlacing strands. The black, grey, and copper cords combine to reflect the same tones in the pendant. I stamped and hand-tinted the pendant, made from Epoxy clay. (The bezel setting and toggle clasp is silver plated).
