Taranis Prayer Bead Bracelet: Gaulish Celtic God of Thunder, Fertility and Protection
This Taranis prayer bead bracelet consists of a total of twelve beads; there are three sets of three beads, signifying the realms of earth, sea and sky, each set separated by a knotwork spacer bead. At the end of the string is an additional bead and a pendant, a symbol representing the god: a wheel. Taranis was often depicted in art holding such a wheel. This piece is a smaller, lighter, more easily wearable version of my pocket prayer beads and comes with the same prayer. The bracelet is made from 8mm deep red fire-polished Czech glass beads with an aurora finish, separated by silver-toned metal spacer beads and glass seed beads to provide a comfortable transition from one bead to the next and to make the piece lightweight, supple and easy to handle. It is approximately 7 inches (17.8cm) long with a 2-inch (5cm) chain to adjust for size and fit; it adjusts from 7-9 inches (17.8-22.9cm) in length and fits most 7-9" wrists (but can be made for other wrist sizes as well--please contact m
