Christmas Ornament Bead Embroidery Kit "Letter "O""

Letter O is an oval monogram in a pink-and-raspberry range, the brightest in the alphabet series.

What the picture shows

The letter appears as a closed oval of even thickness all round. The outer edge is worked in small pink beads, inside runs a dense ring of raspberry and fuchsia faceted stones, and white pearls are sewn between them. A pale field is left at the centre, where the print on the art canvas shows through and balances the saturated colour. Nineteen colours, from pale pink to deep raspberry. The shape is symmetrical, so the brooch looks good from any angle. The stones are packed tightly with no gaps, and the darkest shades are gathered at the bottom of the oval, so the letter carries a slight shadow. The oval is slightly elongated vertically, so the letter does not turn into a perfect circle.

The letter works as an initial or simply as a bright accent on dark clothing. The bronze frame in the photograph is a shooting prop and is not included in the kit. The difficulty is average: the ring is built round in a circle, and the spacing of the stones shows at once.
