This bracelet was named for the resemblance of its segments to the prayer wheels used by Buddhists.

The segments are created from Japanese glass seed beads with a needle and thread, one bead at a time, using a handweaving technique called "peyote stitch". Czech firepolished glass beads, sterling silver beadcaps, and a sterling silver trigger clasp complete the bracelet, which is strung on four strands of parachute cord.
