Pair of Gray & Red Heishi Beads Stretch Bracelets

Heishi refers to small, disk-shaped beads, traditionally made from shell or stone by Native American artisans, but now also made from clay and other materials for jewelry making. The name "heishi" comes from the Keresan word for "shell bead" and highlights the beads' origins in the Santo Domingo (Kewa) Pueblo of New Mexico, where they are considered a significant cultural heritage.
