18th – 19th century gorgeous glass trade beads with just the right amount of color and detail. There is just something beyond candy and delicious the images do not convey. There is a special ancient feel to many of the beads and actual translucence in those that look foggy in the image. Jewels strung them so beautifully, eccentric yet subtle and perfectly woven between each.
One of a kind
Average bead: just under .5″

A note about our woven cords. We weave these by hand, every one of them. Like all Jewels’ work no two are exact, as each of us. The work is labor intensive. When warmed to the skin the cord becomes more supple, conforms to the wearer, hangs at it should; the necklace transforms more than just a necklace. It becomes her.
