Sometimes a piece begins with a single bead.
Not always the prettiest one.
Often the opposite.
A bead with a chip, or a faded tone, or a shape that refuses symmetry. That’s where the story starts.
From there, it’s an unfolding.
The colours gather slowly, side by side, until a rhythm starts to appear.
A quiet conversation between tones, textures, and memory.
The balance can’t be forced.
You wait, move a few aside, return the next day, see it in a new light.
This is the hidden work.
The listening part.
Every Koraliki bracelet is less about what looks right and more about what feels right.
When it finally settles, there’s a stillness.
A knowing.
That’s when the piece is ready to leave the hands that made it.
No two are ever the same.
Each one finds its own voice, its own place in the rhythm.
Made of moments.
Always.
