Vintage Moon captures the art and romance of the Victorian period when a lady was defined by the jewelry she wore. Tiny bezeled rivolis are sewn to an open backed foundation of peyote stitch. The rivolis add lots of sparkle to the bracelet and the addition of pearls brings elegance and class to the overall design. An intricate decorative border of beadwork finishes off the edges of the bracelet band. The fit of the bracelet is slightly structured and bends comfortably around the wrist. The end of the bracelet has a snapped closure that completes the circular design of the bracelet band.

New One Workshop
Piazza Bella in Italian means “Beautiful Square”. That is exactly what this bracelet consists of; beautiful squares that connect together to make a bracelet. Each square consists of three layers which forms the overall dimensional shape of a square. The first layer is the foundation for the square and is made using a peyote stitch. The second layer is a raised center which is made up of an embellished pearl. The beads surrounding the top of the pearl are shaped to follow the existing square shape from the foundation row below. The third layer surrounds the raised center piece and is made up of bicone crystals. This third layer of crystals forms a square following the lines of the foundation row. Each square is linked together between the third layer of crystals with an embellished pearl and between the foundation row from one square to the next. The bracelet ends with a snap sewn onto the last square in the bracelet band which snaps down onto a platform giving the bracelet a continuous look.
