BEADS

I do a lot of work on the beads I pair with my hand carved jade pendants.

I make some beads from scratch, others by re-shaping and re-finishing commercial beads.

(I can often buy shiny round beads in beautiful material for less than the rough would cost.)

I ream the holes to the precise inside diameter that will grip the silk cord just right. I love having a glowing satin finish on the beads rather than a bright glassy polish.

Please note-

I don't sell these beads on their own, only as part of a necklace with a pendant and cord.

Scroll across the photos to see brief descriptions of the beads pictured.
