Mini kit calamita con perline «Cappuccino per due»

“Cappuccino” shows two cups of coffee one behind the other on a grey-lilac table.

What the picture shows

The nearer cup and saucer stand on the right, the second one just shows behind it on the left, and a thin ribbon of steam rises above them. Cream pearl beads lay out the rims of the cups, the edges of the saucers and the steam itself, while clear dark brown beads mark the shadows on the saucers, the coffee surface and a long arc under the composition. The upper half of the canvas is yellow with the word “Cappuccino” in mauve letters and a thin frame on the right; the lower half is the grey-lilac table. 138 beads. The canvas is not filled edge to edge — the beads follow the main lines and the rest stays printed, which is why the piece reads as a drawing rather than a solid beaded carpet. Preciosa beads are calibrated and even in size, so the rows come out straight without sorting them first.
