When creating 2-drop even count peyote stitch designs, I often turn to ethnic & tribal motifs for my inspiration. This pattern is based on a traditional Borneo Dayak motif, often seen in batik-dyed fabrics, but also adapted for tattoos. I love the way the motif centers on a swirl, with linear elements radiating outward. The colors I chose -- semi-matte dark blue with an AB (aurora borealis) finish & shiny lavender -- are definitely non-tradtional for tribal motifs, but I love the way the colors look together.

The nearly 2,000 small beads are handwoven (without a loom), 2 beads at a time, using a technique called 2-drop peyote stitch. The technique gives the bracelet a lovely drape & feel, almost like fabric.

Measurements: 1" (2.5cm) wide, 7" (17.8cm) long, including the bronze-tone tube slide clasp.
