Here you find rare forms of jewelry, created to decorate your hands and feet.

...handflowers...

Handflowers are also known as "slave bracelets," for they are rumored to have originated from Babylon as an asthetic and effective way to mark a slave. Mine have clasps on the inside of the wrist, but originally, once they were on you were stuck, unless you felt like cutting off your hand. Delightful, eh?

I made a slave-bracelet for my friend Allison, to match one worn by the protagonist in her sci-fi novel. You can see it at her site, Jedibubbles.com. Definitely one of the top three hardest things I've ever done, as I tried to stick to her design. It took me many hours of frustration, and I decided that I would make no more that were not beaded all the way through, unless I found a way of making beads stay in place on monofilament without knotting the monofilament 80 million times.

I will have completely beaded handflowers made soon, hopefully.

...barefoot thongs...

You may draw a design if you want, or describe what you want to wear it with, or choose from my designs. You may also order a ring-woven ankle band. This is not your typical bead-weave; instead of straight lines it looks like lace. It takes a lot of time, but looks beautiful. (I do not make the Maat with a ring-woven band.) Note: these are only sold in pairs.
