Day 144: Brass Begleri Beads

More calming in large.

These are meant to be begleri on a string, but I have them on a ribbon... They are derived from Greek komboloi (worry beads), but aren't strung on a loop, and are mostly used as a skill toy (for spinning and twirling).

I don't have that skill, but they're satisfying, and have developed an interesting patina that catches the light in this rather iridescent way.

Other takes are right from here.
