Folk heart beaded crochet necklace NC394

Description

Folk bead crochet necklace - Beaded necklace - Beaded crochet necklace - Heart necklace. We have an interesting story over here:This necklace includes two beaded roses Although the technique that is used to create this necklace is known commonly as "bead crochet (rope)" it has a different name in Turkey. The Turkish name of this technique is "prison weaving" -or if we want to make a mot-a-mot translation it should be "prison work". Why it is called as "prison work" or "prison weaving"? Because it is very common for prisoners to create their own crafts by using this technique. They mainly use a piece of mattress spring as crochet needle and various kinds of beads as well as cotton rope to make their crafts. Materials : I used high quality, coton thread wich gives pendant a strong, rigid structure that will last many years. Neck part of the necklace is constituted by stainless steel, black coated necklace wire. Pendant is made by me -tiny seed bead woven around a wooden bead. Measurements : The pendant portion's longitude is about 2 inch (5cm) inches long and the diameter 2.5 inch (6.5 cm) Total length of the necklace: 46 cm ( 18.11 inches)
