Nature buying in Paper--- "Square Leaves Necklace"

Although adornment for the body has a history dating to the earliest days of human civilizations, the earliest writing about jewelry made from paper seems to be traced to the Victorian period in England. Beads made from paper were much the vogue. In later years, other paper crafts inspired jewelry- quilling, paper mache, laser cut shapes, origami (Japan), twisted paper string (Finland), etc.
These necklaces have been made from handcrafted paper. Each sheet is then treated, embossed, or textured; then coated and buying stitched. Types of paper used include kozo, mulberry, lokta; 40 lb. textured wrapping paper. The stitched paper is then attached to a ribbon, waxed cord, rattail cord, or hemp twine.

Water and tear resistant. Recyclable. Water and tear resistant. Recyclable. Should last for decades with proper care.

Custom orders not done for paper necklaces due to time required for total process and difficulty duplicating exact patterns. I do work in cycles with certain colors.
