Mimbres Bracelet
Item: MIM-BRAC-2

This lovely bracelet features hand made porcelain beads the designs on the disc beads are created to resemble the designs from the ancient pottery.  The edges are airbrushed to give it a bit more interest. The designs go the opposit direction on the other side of the beads. The bracelet is finished off with hand made black porcelain beads and sterling silver bead caps, and either glass or stone beads at each end of the design beads.  It closes with a sterling silver magnetic dexterity clasp that is super simple to fasten around your wrist.  It is adjustable by clipping the clasp into loops between beads further up the bracelet.

From around 200 A.D. to about 1150 A.D. a group of farmers lived along the banks of the Mimbres river in southwestern New Mexico.  Near the end of this time around 1000 to 1100 A.D. they began to make the beautiful black and white design pottery which they are known for. This pottery is distinctive in its intricate geometric designs with fine lines and stylized figures of animals, humans and bugs.  After about 1150 A.D. their villages were abandoned and no more of their pottery is found.

Size:  The bracelet is 7.75 (195mm) long adjustable down to 6 inches.
