Small Cubic Links
Small Cubic Links
Glass bugle beads, seed beads, magnetic clasp.
2013

These two short necklaces are composed of a continuous sequence of small, three-dimensional geometric units, each hand-woven from seed and glass bugle beads. Every module forms a tiny open cube-like structure, creating the impression of a chain built from tessellated polyhedral links. The repeated bead frames articulate gently as they follow the curve of the neck, giving the necklace a flexible, sculptural movement.

The dark, reflective surface of the bugle beads gives the piece a metallic, architectural character, while the openness of the geometric frames keeps it light and airy. The units connect seamlessly to form a rhythmic pattern of angled planes and intersecting lines, resembling a miniature lattice or a chain of crystalline segments.

Finished with a simple metal clasp, the necklaces combine mathematical clarity with refined craftsmanship, an elegant contemporary piece where geometry becomes ornament.
