This handcrafted beaded rectangle medallion by Ironstar Co is a statement piece that blends bold colour, floral symbolism, and refined craftsmanship. Fully hand-beaded on a deep blue ground, the medallion features a central floral motif accented with crystal details, framed by intricate beadwork.
The medallion is suspended from a beaded chain and backed with moosehide, featuring a functional card holder pocket stitched into the reverse. Designed to hold an ID, card, or small flat items, this practical detail allows the piece to be worn as both adornment and utility.
Along the base, the medallion is finished with removable horsehair tassels and metal accents, allowing the wearer to customize how the medallion is worn—either with or without tassels.
Designed to be both ornamental and functional, this medallion reflects continuity, care, and the enduring presence of floral beadwork traditions.
Design Meaning – Floral Motif
The floral design reflects growth, balance, and continuity. Rooted in traditional beadwork practices, the flower symbolizes life in motion and the connection between generations, honouring knowledge passed down through the hands of women who carried these designs forward.
