Kumihimo Weave

The newest piece in our shop is a Kumihimo weave necklace with a glass pendant. The colors are complimentary to each other.

The kumihimo weave has a lot of history in Japan. The geisha once used the kumihimo weave in part of their outfits. For more info see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kumihimo

It is a very tight weave and consists of several cords that make a wonderful spiraling round shape.

Thanks so much for stoppin' by.
Don't forget to come back and check out what's new soon.
