Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – broszka „Litera H”

Letter H is a blue monogram with turquoise stones and a long tassel below.

What the picture shows

The letter consists of two verticals and a crossbar in the middle. The field is filled with blue and cobalt beads, and turquoise and pale blue faceted stones of different sizes are sewn unevenly over it — they give depth and recall water. The contour is outlined in dark beads and the corners are neatly rounded. A long turquoise tassel is attached below, doubling the length of the piece and moving as you walk. Nineteen colours. Print remains on the canvas between the stones. The crossbar is a little narrower than the verticals and the largest stones are gathered in the upper part, so the letter looks lighter at the top. The tassel is gathered from long threads of a single shade and fixed with a small knot of beads.
