Shown here are some of my picks from their large collection of beads and pendants such as the hand carved jasper maple leafs above. I think these would make a wonderful focal for necklaces.
Some of my favorite gemstones are multi-colored ones - the fluorite teardrops below are gorgeous. Round beads are so versatile and popular. However, never underestimate the usefulness of faceted gemstone rondelles.
Be sure to check the sizes of the beads in Anniesbead - some of them are very small such as the 2 mm tourmaline beads shown below!
There are some unusual offerings. One pendant I spotted was so unique. It was composed of three gems, ammonite, abalone MOP and pearls. I am not sure what surrounds them - hematite? crystals?

The galaxy or multi-colored tiger eye (at the end) are the real gemstones but they have been dyed. The different hues add another dimension to the natural variations of tiger eye. And perhaps more versatility to designs.

ReplyDeleteEven though I recommended this to you Pearl - I'm still sitting here drooling over the beads. I absolutely love beads. They make me happy. Looking at these I immediately can see them in some kind of creation.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to say I see them in a necklace but I've noticed a huge drop in sales for necklaces. Has anyone else?
Not really. Probably cyclical. I just sold 2 necklaces online in the past few days.
DeleteTotally drool worthy! The prices seem affordable as well.
