poke Wood Bead Bracelet Workshop: Making with Wood Veneer
The “poke” brand, which develops products based on the theme of “craftsmanship using wood veneer,” will hold a workshop for making wood bead bracelets.
.
Poke’s wood beads are characterized by their original beads made by layering wood veneer and combining natural wood colors.
The original material is made by colorfully pasting together slightly thicker veneer (0.5mm~1.5mm).
Other woods are also produced by carefully selecting unique parts of wood grain.
.
This time, indigo-dyed (precipitated indigo) beads are newly added to our collection.
.
The trees used for these beads come from different countries and environments, and as someone who works with wood, I sometimes feel that each piece of wood has its own story.
Choosing and combining beads from these different woods creates a piece that is uniquely yours.
.
It is fun to choose and combine beads of your favorite colors and shapes, so please take this opportunity to experience it for yourself.
Contents：You can make a bracelet by combining poke original wooden beads of various colors and shapes.
