Akwele Suma creates a whimsical effect with the design of this bracelet. She crafts the bracelet by hand in a palette of grey, cream, red, black and brown hues obtained from rolled-up cylinders of recycled paper. Each one is flanked by sese wood beads.
The artist uses the paper at hand so paper colors will vary, making each design a unique example of handcrafted art. These beads receive a protective coat of clear nail polish.
You can find our recycled paper beaded bracelet 'Exclusive Invitation' by Akwele Suma in jewellery categories such as Eco-Friendly Bracelets, No Stone Bracelets, Paper Bracelets, Wood Bracelets and Beaded Bracelets. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
