  • These beads are priced and sold individually
  • Thai silver, large capped oblates (slightly flattened rounds) in fine basketweave/textile patterns that make these beads stunning focals
  • I was delighted on my most recent trip to Thailand in October, to find some exciting new shapes, both flat and three dimensional, for this basketweave collection. Supplies are limited and silver prices are rising so don't delay.
  • Both Thailand and Indonesia have exquisite bead and fiber traditions and I love it even more when they overlap!
  • Our Thai silver (aka Hill Tribe) is made by Karen smiths and other ethnic groups living in villages in the highlands of the Golden Triangle near Chiang Mai. In addition to the beautiful soft glow of the fine silver, the work is meticulous, often featuring detailed stamped or etched designs in traditional, as well as contemporary, shapes and patterns.
