Horsehair is the long, coarse hair growing on the manes and tails of horses. Horsehair can be very stiff or very fine and flexible, mane hair is generally softer and shorter than tail hair. The texture of horsehair can be influenced by the breed and management of the horse, including natural conditions such as diet or climate.
The tassel (plural tassels) is a ball-shaped bunch of plaited hairs from which at one end protrudes a cord on which the tassel is hung, and which may have loose, dangling hairs at the other end. Tassels are often used as decoration on hat bands, key rings and zipper pulls. Every tassel includes a horse hair knot. Knots cover areas where items are sewn or glued. They are decorative as well as functional. The knot, sometimes called a button, also stops the braid from unraveling similar to a rubber band on a French braid.
One of the first type of beads that were made were bone beads. These beads are made from actual bones which are shaped and threaded to use in decorating. Most modern bone beads are a byproduct of the food industry. Bone beads are often soaked in tea, coffee or ink to change the color.
