Ojime

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Ojime by artist is a round, bronze-colored bead with an etched design, featuring leaves and flowers. The bead is positioned on a purple cord, which appears to be made of braided material. The cord runs vertically through the center of the image, with the bead situated near the center. The background is a light gray color, providing a neutral contrast to the bead and cord.
