Black Coral

This pattern was developed by Shilo.

This Inspiration Spirit bag measures 3 3/4-inches tall X 2 1/2-inches wide. The free form beading is done with all sizes and colors of beads and adds a 3-Dimensional flavor. The large focal piece is a piece of petrified coral cut into a cabochon. There is also a piece of Mother of Pearl. The necklace is beaded in a rope, with Delica beads for both the main color and the accents.

Inspiration Spirit bags of this type sell for $500.00. It is not possible to duplicate this bag exactly. Each of the focal beads are unique. I can bead another that is similar, but the focal bead will make it unique. There are dazzling focal beads being created by glass artists all over the country! If you find one that you are drawn too, I would also gladly work with it.
