Clay Beads

The Dharma Door

$50.00$60.00

Earthy and tactile, these string of hand-rolled Clay Beads are a simple, stylish way to introduce the current terracotta and clay trend into your home.

Display them in a bowl or tray on a coffee table or sideboard, or on top of a stack of books. Hang them from a coat rack or wall hooks to introduce a different texture to existing woven bags or textiles.

Each string of clay beads is handcrafted by two artisan groups in Bangladesh. The clay beads are hand- rolled and fired by pottery artisans that have been practicing the craft for many generations. Pathi grass rope is harvested and hand-plaited by another group of Fair Trade artisans. The Dharma Door aims to create as much work as possible for artisans throughout their collection by choosing handcrafted processes over machine-made materials.

Each bead is hand-rolled; therefore please allow for variations between each string of beads. This is a true mark of an authentic handmade product.

Available in two sizes.

Dimensions | Small set measure 2.5cm across x 1.5 cm high on  a 90cm loop | Large set measure 2cm across x 3.5 cm high on  a 150cm loop
