Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – broszka „Letni deszcz”

Summer rain shows an open umbrella with blue drops hanging from its edges.

What the picture shows

The umbrella is seen from the side, dome upward: silver-grey beads run in radial rows from the top to the rim, marking out the panels. The handle curves into a hook and is embroidered in the same silver beads. Clear blue drops of different sizes are fixed along the rim — they hang loose and sway, so the piece looks as if it is moving. Fourteen colours stay in a cool range: silver, graphite, ice and blue. Between the rows of beads the art canvas keeps its print, which repeats the colours of the scheme. The ribs of the dome are marked with darker beads, so the panels can be seen from a distance, and the top finishes in a sharp spike of a few beads. The handle ends in a small ball of a dark bead, and that detail finishes the umbrella's silhouette.
