I used Japanese glass Delica beads and size 15 seed beads to bezel three etched black onyx 14mm lentil beads. I connected the three with peyote and picot and have used neoprene o-rings from the hardware store and tinned copper jumprings I cut myself to make a stretch band.
Model has a tight wrist measurement of 6". (I can increase the length by 1/2+" increments for a fee of $1 per increment.)

This is my prototype for a new line of work I've been musing on for almost a year.
I made the chain with sterling plated and raw copper rings and wove them in the Helm pattern. There is a copper magnetic clasp. I bent and hammered the freeform pendant shape and wove beads into the center. The beads are Czech glass seed beads, Japanese metal seed beads, copper over brass, and Thai silver. I finished the piece with a dip in liver of sulfer to oxidize, then it spent about 3 hours in the tumbler to clean and shine in curious and magnificent ways.
