Lampwork beads and gems jewelry
One of our new lines for 2008 featuring colorful gems, handmade lampwork beads and Thai and Bali Silver and Gold beads.
The Karen and Hilltribe of northern Thailand make their living in agriculture or handicrafts - silversmithing being their most famous. Each piece is handmade with the same primitive tools they have used for centuries and the silver content is higher than the 92.5% of Sterling Silver.
Bali silver beads are handcrafted mainly in Celuk - Bali's major silver manufacturing center. They are 92.5% (Sterling) silver and never silver-plated. The highly skilled techniques used in crafting these beads are passed down from generation to generation. Bali gold beads are 18 to 22K gold over Sterling Silver.
Check back in! We're still working on some pieces.
