Bronze Contemporary

Bronze contemporary Shetland Lace beaded art-piece. Knitted round (every 2^nd row in purl lace to produce the traditional important texture of ‘riggies’ or garter in Shetland Lace.) to produce seamless lace, beads all knitted in with designs inspired from the St Ninians bowls. Made with metallic yarn and antique style beads. Reminiscent of roaring twenties and flapper style garment fashion. These hats can be worn but I have them lit up on heads and globes as contemporary sculpture art-pieces (heirlooms), which they are.
