Perfect for the brides who are looking for something a little more subtle, this slim handfasting cord has been constructed from a pale lilac satin braid, with cream and gold accents, incorporating strung pearl beads, a flower braid, antique gold satin ribbon and cream and lilac trim, comprising a total of seven strands.
Both ends of the larger strands are finished with a gold end cap, then decorated with a simple bead embellishment. The remainder of the strands have been either capped with a small gold cabouchon, or heat sealed to prevent fraying.
The cords are plaited together and finished with a knotted section at the ends - this allows the cords to flow freely and give every sensation of movement, whilst still making them practical to tie during the handfasting ceremony.
The braided cord section is approx 1.1m long, and the loose end sections add an extra 10cm or so at each end, resulting in a complete cord length in the region of 1.3m
If you require more precise measurements, or would like a cord made in a different colour/material, please let me know and I'll create you something perfect!
All handfasting cords are posted in a luxury ivory coloured keepsake box, and I also have a number of 'upgraded' keepsake boxes available for when you want something a little bit special for your cord. As with the cords, the boxes can also be personalised to suit you.
Keepsake boxes purchased at the same time as a handfasting cord will not incur any postage costs.
I can also make jewellery items using the same elements as the handfasting cord, so that all members of the wedding party can complement the happy couple, as well as eachother. Examples would include earrings and necklaces, as well as bracelets for both men and women.
Other postal destinations are not a problem - please contact me for costs before purchasing.
I have a number of other handfasting cords available, and many more partially completed which will be added shortly - watch this space for more listings or contact me to get a headstart!
