Beaded Bead Necklace

Axel Russmeyer German

Not on view

The dense arrangements of commercially available and vintage beads over a wooden core make for the rich texture and saturated color of Axel Russmeyer's beaded necklaces and earrings. The effect recalls the vibrant beadwork of Wiener Werkstätte designers of the 1910s and 1920s such as Maria Likarz.
