Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – ozdoba do włosów „Miętowa arabeska”

“Mint arabesque” is a hair band with three round rosettes in mint and silver.

What the picture shows

The embroidered part sits at one side of the band and is built from overlapping circles. In the largest circle rays of white pearls are laid around a pale stone with a yellow-green sheen, while the circle next to it is darker — steel grey with a turquoise rim. Towards the ends the rosettes grow smaller and turn into pointed petals with azure drops. The ground under the beads is covered completely, and the mix of matt beads, round pearls and faceted glass gives a visible relief. The sixteen colours stay within mint, grey and mother-of-pearl. The band is covered in pale fabric, so it does not compete with the embroidered part.
