Brain fried, unable to think of a better name for this piece. I guess that's because I'm not overly thrilled by it. Threading the beads on the wire was a real chore to get done. I don't believe I will do this kind of thing again. But you have to teach yourself what's good and easy, and what's difficult enough that you don't want to do it that way again.
Couple notes which may be of interest. The group of parallel lines on the side were made with a medium cut checkering file. You can turn the file 90˚ degrees and make a crosshatch, or 45˚ degrees to make a diamond pattern. Pretty neat tool. Bit on the expensive side, though.
The round brass dots are rivets set into the faux bone with a neat little tool from Crafted Findings. It is their Riveting System for 1/16th" Semi-tubular Rivets. It works really well.
