Description

Beaded necklace with six layers of square beadwork panels attached together at the centre. The first and third panel each have a three by three grid, second and fifth panel each have a hexagon, fourth panel has a hexagon-like shape with two triangular protrusions, and the sixth panel has a hexagon shape with one triangular protrusion. There are six ties running horizontally through the necklace, creating raised lines of beading. These horizontal pieces are mostly beaded in white, with a section of vertical stripes: red, green, black, yellow, black, green, and red. The fibre ties extend out on both sides, and have red colouring near the beadwork and at the ends, some of which are knotted.
