This beaded piece made by Beading Hearts is a labor of precision and determination—these Pacific Northwest Indigenous earrings were stitched over the course of 3 hours. They are one of one.
Beading Hearts uses only the highest quality materials for their flatstitch beadwork, using sterling silver, genuine abalone shell, glass seed beads and ethically-sourced, smoked carp leather from an Indigenous artist based in Olympia, WA.
This is slow fashion rooted in Indigenous artistry: timeless, sacred.
