Mia Top

A triangle halter top hand-beaded in red, amber and burgundy, with cultivated water mussel shell discs set between the rows.

Two triangle cups tie at the neck, each worked in tight horizontal rows of beads in deep red, amber and burgundy, the colours moving from dark to bright down the cup. Between the rows, pale discs of cultivated water mussel shell sit like small moons against the colour. The beads are a mix of glass, wood and stone, so every row has its own weight, finish and sheen. Wear it with the Mia Skirt as a set, or on its own over trousers or a long skirt. Handcrafted in Nigeria by Kíléntár’s artisans.

WEIGHT: The top is beaded across its full surface and is heavier than it looks. 

FABRIC CARE: Dry clean only. Do not hand wash, as wood, stone and shell beadwork needs professional care. Keep away from water and perfume. Store flat, never folding the beaded surface. Handle with care to avoid snagging. See the Care tab on this page for full guidance.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

Is the Mia Top true to size?
If you are between sizes, size up. Check bust against the size guide at kilentar.com/pages/size-chart, and contact hello@kilentar.com if you are unsure.

How heavy is the Mia Top?
It’s heavier than it looks, because it’s beaded across the full surface. [PENDING: weight]

How does the Mia Top fasten?
Two triangle cups tie at the neck. 

Will every Mia Top look the same?
Each bead is individual, in glass, wood or stone, and the shell discs are natural, so slight variations in colour, grain and surface are part of the material, not a flaw.

How long does it take to make the Mia Top?
Every Kíléntár piece is handcrafted to order. Please allow 2 weeks to process your order before dispatch. If you have an event deadline, contact us at hello@kilentar.com before ordering to confirm availability.
