Are you familiar with Cellini Spiral Bracelets? They're created with a tubular peyote stitch (bead-weaving vernacular) using a variety of bead shapes, sizes and colors the outcomes of which are absolutely fascinating.
Why is the jewelry called Cellini? Well, that's still a mystery to be realized but the weave is widely popular in the beading industry by both artists and consumers alike. I, for one, love, love, LOVE the Cellini spiral, thus, my efforts here at promoting this well sought-after fashion trend.

Most of the Cellini's I've seen on the internet have large, round seed beads as the leading spiral -- the focus of which inspires the remaining color palette. I wanted to try my hand at something different so I used freshwater pearls as the dominant beads to make a more impactful statement. I'm happy to say they worked! And, to date, I've not seen another virtual bracelet in its likeness. The lovely peacock blue/gray colors remind me of the sea and the spiral motif is reminiscent of sea creatures!
For application, the Cellini Spiral simply rolls over the hand. It's really that simple! The smooth beads and the bracelet design allow for the flexibility required to wheel the piece over protruding knuckles and onto the wrist where it can be adorned with other bangle bracelets if so desired.
The Cellini Spiral shown below measures approximately 0.71-inches wide (18 mm). It can be made thinner with the use of smaller beads. I hope to have samples showcasing the different sizes and color palettes in the very near future.
Whether you're running out to a dorm party clad in stringy blue jeans, or attending a formal retirement dinner for a co-worker, don't feel restrained by age or attire. It's all about the wrist! But don't take my word for it. Try a bracelet for yourself and fall in love! Then go tell the world about Cellini Spiral's!
Here's wishing you dreamy dreams and vivid visions!
