Beaded by hand in Austin, TX out of Japanese glass seed beads and thread, then finished with silver plated findings. 18 inch necklace. One of the first knots you learn in sailing is the 8 knot, used to stop ropes from sliding out of where you want them to be. We love something useful and visually stunning. These necklaces are meant to be layered, so do some color paletting and layer it up! The 8 knot necklaces look really great paired together in different colors, as well as with gold or silver jewelry already in your personal collection.
