Beads and Jewelry Making Supplies Since 1980<\/h2>\r\nIt all began with a handful of beads. Since 1980<\/strong> we have been doing what we know best: sourcing, gathering and bringing to makers, artisans and hobbyists the beads behind countless bracelets, necklaces, flamenco embroidery and endless creative ideas. What started as a passion for these small pieces has grown into more than four decades of experience, and today we remain, above all, a true bead house.\r\n

More than 40 years specializing in beads<\/h2>\r\nWhen you spend a lifetime working with beads, you learn to tell what really matters: the finish of a Czech glass bead, the consistency of a seed bead, the clean sparkle of a Swarovski Element or the natural touch of mother of pearl and stones. That experience, built since 1980, is what we put into every item in our catalogue. We don't just sell beads: we offer the selection, the variety and the judgement of people who have worked with them for decades.\r\n
