Double Pagoda Beaded Bead
Double Pagoda Beaded Bead
The Double Pagoda beaded bead uses a collection of Swarovski crystals, Czech glass beads, and several shapes and sizes of Japanese seed beads, all woven into a single beaded bead design. This beaded bead uses a variation on the triangle weave technique, combined with an intricate layer of beads woven together with the netting stitch. The Double Pagoda beaded bead makes a lovely solo pendant, but it can also be incorporated into bracelets and necklaces, paired with the Pagoda Beaded Charm, or adapted to accompany a larger focal bead.
