Women's Beaded Necklaces

If asked to describe our range of women’s bead necklaces we would say; original, handmade, one-off designs. We might add that they are design-led, exotic, daring, bold and authentic. You won’t find our exotic necklaces on the high-street. We don’t wholesale. We could save money by having them made overseas but prefer to craft each necklace ourself. That way we can be confident of what we’re selling. We refuse to mass produce our jewellery. We make jewellery for individual and that’s why no two designs are the same. We love what we do.
