Black and bright

I've always wanted a versatile (mostly) black bracelet. Black and white was too stark and while I love black and gold, it seems more for for glittery evening wear. When I saw the Universal Unique in the second picture, I pounced, and it was the starting point for an anytime black bracelet. Core, schmore! Just added a tiny bit of celestial gold for more spark. I dithered over the Harlequin re-makes (the roundness and size were sticking points) and by the time I decided to get one, they were all gone.

Beautiful bracelet and I like your new UU. I would wear this bracelet often, hope you do.

I haven't seen such a beautiful UU before.
It really match your black base bracelet.Love your combo!

Lovely! Your UU looks so different in the 2 pix.

I really want one of the Three Flowers beads. I'll have to do some saving up for that one tho...

What a spectacular bead - really super.

Fantastic! That's the sort of blacks bracelet I've been thinking of making, not too stark like black'n'white, not too glitzy like black'n'gold, just touches of a few other colors. Darkly neutral. Love it, Trollmoll.

Beautiful bracelet!

That is one amazing bead and bracelet

Gorgeous black bracelet ! You´ve added just the right amount of color to make it a versatile and "every day" combo.

Your bracelet is awesome! I love making gray ones, but haven't tried black. It looks like it might be harder than one might think! You did a great job!

Fabulous bracelet, love the UU bead and where did you get your Black silver trace?

That UU is WOW!!

I love this bracelet! So neutral....gorgeous!

Beautiful bracelet, and that uu would also be terrific in a fall/Halloween bracelet!

Very versatile combo, the Black silver trace caught my eye as well....

It's a very stellar bracelet!

it's a pretty combo!

A truly beautiful bracelet, goes with everything, love it!

Yup that's one great bead. Beautiful combo I can see that that's one you
would never take apart.

The black silver trace came from Handmadebeads in the Netherlands. I got it a while ago and don't see it on their website currently but they can probably do a custom order. You also have the option of the Trollbeads sized core for a little extra. I got my purple caterpillar from them too.

Thanks for all your nice comments! I really enjoy the combo's neutral versatility.

What a wonderful bracelet!!! I would never thought of a bracelet with all black beads, but seeing it now I love it!!!! Thanks for sharing!

Your bracelet is so beautiful - I like, how the green of the Mexicolock brights up the black.

You have a real stunner here! I'm partial to the darker beads and you have combined them perfectly here!
