The beautiful etchings and intricate detailing in this bead cap make it a sight to behold and a necessity for your collection. Each circular bead cap has small slits in the ends to create petal shapes. Each petal has had a starburst pattern etched into its surface, creating a look reminiscent of fireworks. Because you can use these with several different sized beads depending on how much of the bead you want to cover, these beads are a wonderful addition to any piece of jewelry. Use them with your favorite bead or crystal to create elegant earrings, necklaces or bracelets. No matter how you use them, you'll surely be amazed by the craftsmanship that goes into each and every piece of Hill Tribe silver jewelry. These items are made by the Karen Hill Tribe in northern Thailand using traditional tribal methods passed down from generation to generation. Purchasing these silver items helps sustain a traditional craft and provides the Karen people with a reliable source of income. The silver content in our Hill Tribes silver beads and pendants is typically 95-99%, even higher than sterling (92.5%). This higher silver content is softer and therefore easier to shape into all the unique and wonderful styles. On close inspection you will notice that no two pieces are exactly alike, attesting to the handmade nature of these beautiful pieces.
