The Story: Elegant & Cheeky
Who says conservation can't be fun? This "Forbidden Fruit" bracelet is a masterclass in contrast. We’ve taken a formidable 1.5-inch vertebra from an Everglades Python—an invasive species we work hard to manage in Florida—and "dressed" it in a vibrant, cheeky array of Czech glass fruits. It’s a sophisticated nod to the tropical wild, finished with a tiny Burmese Python vertebra that serves as a natural, skeletal bead. This is wearable art that refuses to take itself too seriously while still honoring the intricate anatomy of the glades.
The Composition
The Specimen: A central 1.5-inch Everglades Python vertebra, accompanied by one miniature Burmese Python vertebra used as a structural bead.
The "Fruit Salad": Hand-woven Czech glass beads in the shape of a banana, a strawberry, a lime, and an orange.
The Loom Work: Intricate accents of purple seed beads, bugle beads, and pops of blue and yellow glass, woven directly onto the finding and bone.
The Hardware: Silver-plated, nickel-free circle finding bracelet for a secure, comfortable drape.
The Profile: A standard 7.5-inch fit with a bold, kinetic center-piece.
Style & Wear
This is the ultimate conversation starter for your next garden party or gallery crawl. The bright colors of the fruit pop against the stark, architectural white of the python bone. It’s substantial enough to wear alone, but "cheeky" enough to stack with your favorite silver bangles.
The Investment
Curation Price: $45 (Reflecting the intricate hand-weaving and beadwork).
The Legacy: Hand-crafted in North Port, Florida by Michele Moore.
Fulfillment: Free Shipping included.
