The design on
this hand-stitched necklace is inspired by the Egyptian collar known as
“wesekh”. Instead of using tubes in horizontal layers, we used our core
technique of hand-stitching seed beads into a black felt cloth. We used multiple
colors such as; gold, black, gray, blue, and green on the patterns for this
collection of necklaces. Each of these necklaces is meticulously hand-stitched
by skilled artisans, as can be seen on the tightness of the beads stitching on
black felt cloth. We made use of a rhodium chain as an enclosure to finish off
the necklaces.

According to
Egyptian mythology, the “wesekh” collar was the chosen adornment of the gods
and pharaohs, thus we named the collection after the ancient Egyptian feline
goddess, Bastet. Here some suggestions on some outfits that you can pair your “Bastet”
necklace with.
