Description

(2019), 3" inner diameter and 4.5" outer diameter, Delica beads (transparent gold lined, deep bronze gold metallic, matte brown metallic, opalescent silverlined mint, transparent lavender lined, dark blue/ purple metallic, glossy opaque black).

This bracelet is assembled from 4 different triangular bead panels stitched in a mix of Peyote and Herringbone combined into 10 tetrahedra each that move freely on beaded hinges. Depending on how you "cycle" the bracelet it will show four different faces and combinations of bead colors.

Because the tetraheda are hollow the piece looks fairly substantial while still feeling quite light-weight and easy to wear.

Here are two kaleidocycles based not on a 10-tetrahedron pattern, but made up of 6 units each.
