Two Peas in a Pod keychains (RESERVED)
Special custom order for Sue! PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE UNLESS YOU ARE HER!
Two keychains made to order, featuring an intricately detailed, three-dimensional wooden Japanese ojime bead handcarved bead made out of boxwood which is signed by the artist.
Because Japanese kimonos do not have pockets, small bags were used to hold personal effects. The bags were attached with a cord with two carved beads: A larger toggle bead (netsuke) and a smaller sliding bead (ojime). Ojime were also believed to have magical or protective qualities.
