This bolo symbolises creation and skill: Our hands are a tool for creation, from crafting objects to building communities. They are a physical manifestation of a person's ability to leave their mark on the world. Besides all that, these hands are silly and fun and perfect for hours of mischief and laughter!
Made with a single long length of snake chain and two cast brass pieces of metal, this bolo can be worn in several different ways. First, like a traditioanl bolo tie, with the small connector positioned tight at the nape of the neck. Secondly, experiment with knotting and twisting the chain to create a shorter and more dramatic necklace. Or, thirdly, wear the chain down your back with a open back oufit. With this choice you could also experiment with knotting or looping the chain over and around the central “bolo” part.
MATERIALS: Vintage brass snake chain. Hand carved in wax and cast in metal. Full length 39 inches.
Brass care and cleaning information can be found here and look here for more information on knotting that chain.
