Double wrap gold and trade beads leather bracelet, with pure 24K gold wrapped beads and a solid 18k Gold button clasp. This bracelet is made with High Quality hand rolled leather.

I wrapped some old African trade beads with sheets of pure 24-carat gold that I cast and laminated myself.
Each bead is unique and is made by hand in my workshop. Their textures will be matte and finely brushed, a process bringing out the density and brilliance of the color of pure gold.

My precious leather is entirely re-worked in my workshop for a unique, supple and very resistant finish.

I will adapt the length of the bracelet on request, please measure the circumference of your wrist with a string and give me the result upon purchase.

Everything is done by hand in my workshop, from the sculpture of the elements to the casting and finishing of the metal, the leather will very quickly take the shape of your wrist and will develop a magnificent patina as it ages.

These old cobalt blue (Russian blue) beads were made by master glassmakers in Venice and used as currency on African soil for centuries, probably between 1800 and the mid-19th century. Superb shine and very nice color density.

The term "trade beads" generally applies to Bohemian beads made primarily in Venice and other European countries from the 1400s to the 1900s and traded primarily in Africa. and the Americas.

There are exceptional museum collections of barter beads at the Museum of Man in London, the River Pitt Museum in Oxford, the Murano Glass Museum in Italy, the Royal Tropical Institute in Amsterdam and the Picard Bead Trade Museum in California, United States to name a few.
