Heart and Charm Thai Karen Silver Beaded Bracelet with Heart Shaped Charm

Siranya's love of design first manifested itself when she was growing up in Thailand. 'I've loved to draw...since I was young,' she says. 'I feel that when I do something, I must concentrate and use my imagination, and that will lead me to do it well.' She designs a delightful bracelet that is hand strung and consists mainly of beads produced by Karen Hill tribe artisans, who enjoy a reputation as excellent silversmiths. The shiny bracelet features a double strand of thin tubular beads and two round 925 sterling silver beads at each end of the Karen silver hook clasp. The simplicity of the design emphasizes the heart-shaped Karen silver charm stamped with a small blossom that dangles from the winsome bracelet.
