Floret Layered Necklace

Softness and structure meet in this handcrafted Xiangyunsha fabric bead necklace. Each bead is individually wrapped and knotted from Gambiered Canton Gauze silk — its matte, velvety surface carrying the quiet depth of an ancient dyeing tradition — strung across two cascading strands of faceted black crystal beads for a look that is effortlessly layered and entirely one of a kind.

The Xiangyunsha fabric, produced through a centuries-old Cantonese process using plant tannins and river mud, gives each bead a richness of color and texture that deepens with wear. Drape it over a linen shirt, a silk blouse, or a qipao collar and let the layers do the talking.
